In Brainstorms, Jennifer Bloom invites us to connect – withstories, relationships, and the natural world that is oftenhidden behind the façade of suburbia. At times metaphysical,quirky, and emotionally raw, the poetry in this collection is anexploration of what it means to be human and the moments thatcan transcend the ordinary.“The themes are familiar – love lost and found, life’s ups and downs, beginningsand endings. But no rose is ever identical. Bloom’s poetic gift lies in her abilityto evoke what’s familiar and shared by way of tiny, almost imperceptible gesturesand the powerful, sometimes painful, intimacies of everyday life. Her workevokes the layers and textures of Mary Oliver and Joni Mitchell. Its color is,finally, a defiant and joyous yellow, its music the first sounds of spring.”- George Gonzalez, Assistant Professor ofPhilosophy, Religion and Interdisicplinary Studies, Monmouth University“Bloom has a way of bringing beauty to the mundane, eliciting an intimacy withher readers through shared experience. Recognizing the sacred in the everyday,her poetry invites us to linger over what we might otherwise ignore. A sleepingchild, a quiet house, a butterfly in flight... these are the moments she elevates tothe remarkable. A must-read for those desiring to transform their relationshipwith the world.”- Jennifer Hritz, Author, The Crossing and I, too, Have Suffered in the GardenCover Art: Hector KrietePhoto: Diana Berrent PhotographyExperience more at Jennifer-Bloom.com

    ‘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.

  • 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.
