Sobre IBD

2019. Fifth collection. 24 poems. ALL RETCH AND NO VOMIT was written upon the author’s return to England in 2017 after a number of years abroad. The titular poem is a seven-part study on modern society whilst others in the collection range from postulations on the nature of aesthetics in the church, the growing threat to society posed by the recent explosion in Fathead numbers, the effects of the modern news cycle on the psyche, sex, as always, and the value of self-exploration in a world of superficiality. O’Brien celebrated the completion of the collection by buying tickets out of England.

    Jennifer Chrystie
    ‘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....

  • Howling at the Moon
    Samuel James O'Brien / Samuel James O’Brien
    Howling at the Moon is a singular work, a hunger-ballad spanning several hundred lines and changing direction like a jack-rabbit. At one moment the verse is sturdy, like a thigh, at the next mercurial; wispish as the thrill of new love. The author has described the work as a poem 'that just wouldn’t stop bloody going' but at its core the book is an exploration of what people ca...
