Emily Zogbi’s debut, all the time more than anything, is an interrogation of memory and time, family and love, magic and fear. While some poems convene with Janis Joplin and Emily Dickinson, others hear from Medea and Kitty Genovese. The book is populated by a chorus of women, talking all at once, who shop at the supermarket, sit on the beach, and loiter in a 7-11 parking lot. They are waiting for someone to come home or hoping no one comes home at all. all the time more than anything explores the voices and people we collect across generations, be it through mental illness, trauma, grief, recipes, remedies, or stories. The poems sit with a variety of ghosts-the therapist, the mother, the mentor, the killer-but one voice rings through the clutter: a lonely speaker, tasked with becoming herself. Includes poems such as 'Lost Things,' which was awarded the 2021 Sappho Prize for Women Poets by Palette Poetry.

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....
