Sobre IBD

Poems in the Black Book are grouped into three sets: family; the larger world; and day and night. There’s no free verse: the closest is a poem in blank verse and a prose poem. Most of the formal verse consists of sonnets, although there are four other formal poems, two in regular forms and two in irregular.

  • 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....

  • Fort Clark Stories
    James Togeas
    Fort Clark is a not quite fictional city as I explain in the preface and appendix to the book. The characters and events are fictional in the sense that I have not recorded actual events happening to identifiable people. My goal has been to craft stories that are, as Lamb has written, 'shadows of fact--verisimilitudes, not verities.' ...

  • Again
    James Togeas
    Repetition is the only form of permanence that nature can achieve, says philosopher George Santayana. Exact recurrence of the same has a vanishingly small probability, but it seems likely that everyone has experience of nearly recurrent events, that is, events that make the past seem to be a part of the present. The novel 'Again' features three intertwined stories of near-repet...
