Spiced with humor, this is a traditional yet ground-breaking book of original poetry that revels in some unexpected delights such as, in two or three poems of the one hundred and twenty-one, a few stanzas in which the rhyme is supplied but the line itself not fully completed, leaving the reader to have some fun filling in the three or four pretty obvious but missing words! But why be content with the obvious? Maybe readers can come up with some really humorous suggestions?

    ‘There’s a touch of both Dickinson and Larkin in Jennifer Chrystie’s mature exhumation of the tales and tropes of family. Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
