Sobre IBD

Barbed Forest draws from the socio-political character of society—specific societies sometimes.  It navigates its way from the political to the familial and ultimately personal concerns of humankind before projecting the positive “humanist vision” of which the poet cum freedom songster dreams.

  • Polishing the Silver
    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....

  • DJT
    Bill F. Ndi / Bill FNdi
    Through a careful allusive poetic composition process, the poet takes on the aberrant oppression that a mad egocentric individual at the helm of a train forces upon his passengers and not without their complicity, and who while boarding the train are fully aware the train is one of doom. The poem comes across as the poet’s reconstruction of the wrong turn in world politics from...
  • Sacred Songs

    Bill F. Ndi’s Sacred Songs is a collection of 95 sonnets deeply rooted in the tradition of spiritual testimony of faith. The personae in the poems are a creed of believers who are never far away from their God to whom be all glory. These poems are all in praise of the works of the Almighty God in the life of all. Bill F. Ndi in his characteristic simplicity and songlike style s...

    « La vérité blesse » ou encore « la vérité est une pilule amère à avaler » sont des adages depuis fort longtemps passés de mode. Cependant, dans La Logorrhée du poète ou l’Histoire des Camerouns en 33 gouttelettes, le poète évoque et symbolise d’une manière nouvelle et d’une esthétique fascinante le mal-vivre de Southern Cameroons/Ambazonia avec ses frères/voisins de la Républi...

  • Peace Mongers At War
    Bill F. Ndi / Bill FNdi
    Peace Mongers is much more than a collection or book of poems. It is the concretization of an indefatigable crusade for peace through lyricism that equally reads much more as a manifesto. The words, herein strung, dignify the victims of gratuitous violence, be it political, social, economic, or cultural. On the same scale the collection comes across as a virulent vilification o...
  • Pride Aside and Other Poems
    Bill F. Ndi / Bill FNdi
    Pride Aside and Other Poems rattles the brain as it blurs thematic boundaries. Even though Bill F. Ndi’s poems seem to clearly draw inspiration from everyday life, almost all the poems are structured as sonnets. Through the lines of the various poems in this collection, influences of poets from different schools of poetic creativity and streams of inspiration resonate. They bri...
  • Secrets, Silences and Betrayals
    Bill F. Ndi / Bill FNdi
    Secrets, Silences, and Betrayals is an invitation to readers to consider factoring in the often discarded or censored but useful information held by the dominated. The book’s principal claim is that the unsaid weighs in significantly on the scale of semantic construction as that which is said. Thus, it legitimates the impact of the absentee in broadening and clarifying knowledg...
