Knowing and believing. Besides ?love?, they must be among the most used and abused words.Knowledge acquired through experience, through reason, through data, through proofs, through authorities, through intuition, through insight, through feelings, through instincts, through enlightenment, through faith, and more.How can we find our way through this jungle?If knowing was only a theoretical issue, we would probably be stuck in the jungle forever.But knowing is above all practical, which makes it so essential for each of us in the way we live our lives.How do we find our way through the jungle of different forms of knowing, then?Through believing.We manage our way through the jungle by holding fast to our beliefs.We reach all sorts of different beliefs, some very deep and strong, some less so, some from a source some from another source, often from conflicting sources.But somehow we build a balance among them. If our balance breaks, we are then in serious trouble. 3

    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....

    ?N? principio n? fine n? ora. Solo la Voce. La Voce correva. La Voce gridava. Ma non c'era spazio da poter percorrere. Non c'era spazio che potesse ospitare un suono.

E non c'era nulla...
