In my fifth installment, Cabin Fever explores the themes of isolation and anger in my most vulnerable year yet. During the start of this pandemic, I found myself bitter and lonely--finding inspiration from poets like Emily Dickinson and hiding out in the darkest parts of my brain. I also spent a huge part of this past year reevaluating my core beliefs when it comes to politics and human decency. This book is mostly about my encounters or experiences with death: the death of a romantic friendship, the death of an expectation for a loved one, the death of an addictive habit, the death of a traumatic event, the death of some beloved heroes that broke our hearts, the death of a tragic marriage, the death of religion and its consequences, and the death of disillusionment with what we always thought America to be. As horrific and as horrifying as death can be, it is a natural part of life--making way for a new beginning or a fresh start when necessary. Step into the woods with me and wander around in my mind for what is surely my most bold and emotionally turbulent work of art.

    ‘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....

  • THE MARSHES HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY
    Scott Hill
    When I set out to write this poetry book, I was really stuck on what it means to be 'honest' in my writing. How much do we say in poems about our personal lives and how much is too much? What parts of the soul does one put on display? What parts stay hidden? How do we know which poems to share and which ones are for our diaries? Is there a purpose for what we share, or do we ch...

  • MANIC!
    Scott Hill
    MANIC! is a book I have wanted to write for years. My mania was something I struggled to put into words and could only hint at in my previous work. It took a few health scares and some courage to finally create this over the course of the past year. I hope that by reading this, you’ll discover that those who deal with mania are so much more than having 'psychotic' tendencies. B...

    Our lives are full of dichotomies: dark versus light, sin versus virtue, right versus wrong, experience versus innocence, young versus old, childhood versus adulthood, pride versus shame, angels versus demons. Many of us grow up to believe that we are either one version of ourselves or another--black or white--and that there is no in-between. The reality is that we all live in ...
