A collection of more than 160 of Tim King’s poems, song lyrics, rants and rhymes written over a period of half a century. The selected works reflect those preoccupations that have both endured and developed throughout the author’s adult life, coalescing into a compelling portrait of one human being’s unique take on the World. Described by one reviewer as, 'the perfect poetry pick-me-up that every writer longs for' (Clare Morris Ph.D.) and by another as, 'a spirit of love coupled with searing wit' (Prof. Nigel Smith, Princeton), Coalescence mixes conventional structures and unbound creativity in ways that challenge preconceptions at every turn. Prof. Smith continues, 'Readers will delight at the sharp turns of sense and poetic form as the verse tears up the shallow surface veneer of everyday life.'For all its apparent appeal to the academic elite, this volume is resolutely accessible and down to Earth. Unflinching pieces tackle a broad range of subjects including child abuse, climate change, fairy stories, social justice, war, corruption and death. Ultimately intended as a source of connection, amusement and solace, it is the author’s proudest boast that Matt Harvey (poet and broadcaster) has seen fit to award this collection 'a high Tog rating.'

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....
