Sobre IBD

David Pierce is one of those rare beings - a real poet. He does not write for others, neither does he, strangely enough, write for himself. He writes because there are things to be said and someone has to say them, he writes because this is his means of communication, one that in his opinion makes people think and his writing style forces them to think. And if they don’t want or are not able to think? Well, then they better try again.

The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

    Edward V Bonner

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 question continues to be asked about the author who claimed that he had put so many enigmas into Ulysses that it would `keep the professors busy for centuries’ arguing over what he meant. For Joyce this was a way of ensuring his immortality, but it could also be claime...
