Some books comfort you. This one keeps your synapses awake.Confessions is a stream-of-consciousness manifesto told in aphorisms, puns, and micro-poems - a restless mind thinking out loud about physics, power, religion, sex, and death, and refusing to soften any of it. One line will make you laugh; the next will make you uneasy; the one after that might be the truest thing you read all week. That’s the game.By turns cerebral and absurd, tender and merciless, it reads like philosophy that escaped the seminar and started talking back. No chapters to hide behind. No conclusions handed over. Just a voice that thinks faster than it apologizes.'History Does Not Repeat Itself. Stupidity Does.' 'War Is Just Organized Panic.' 'I live in Utopia. She works on my reality form.' 'Marriage Formalizes What Desire Cannot Sustain Alone.' 'I Take Steps To Avoid It, But Stairs Are Always Up To Something.' For readers who like their wit dark, their ideas dense, and their truths uncomfortable.

  • 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....
