Sobre IBD

'These are poems of ferocious grief and beauty in which Scholt unsentimentally confronts a much larger loneliness in a time of universal doubt, war and disconnection, yet the natural world sustains-the 'small bird' is still calling. These unforgettable elegies are dazzling, stirring and true.'-Jan Worth, poet and author of Night Blind; teaches writing at the University of Michigan-Flint.'In magnificently crafted poems Scholt rages against war in sharp searing images, but also depicts the tragedies of ordinary life, the 'treachery of time', along with celebrating the quietly joyous moments. These are forthright, unpretentious but profound poems which readers will find moving and absorbing.'-Helen Deese, retired English Professor at Tennessee Tech; editor of Daughter of Boston and The Journals of Caroline Healey Dall'Scholt’s poignant fine prosody memorializes the people and places she keeps close to her heart.'-Rafael H. Mojica, Poetry Editor of The Uncommon Sense

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....
