Sobre IBD

These poems honor the life of the heart and the spirit and speak of a growing intimacy with nature, the land, and the sea. They are grounded in a spiritual path, and though they are sometimes irreverent, they are always full of love for the divine and great gratitude for life. Most reflect the experience of living on the Maine coast and in treelined Brooklyn, New York. Voice is given to the spirits of the mountains and trees, the fogs off the Gulf of Maine, and a sometimes whimsical imagination. They range from reverential to lighthearted, and all come out of a deeply felt gratitude for all life and bring with it its challenges, its sorrows, and its blessings. 3

  • Polishing the Silver
    Jennifer Chrystie
    ‘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....
