Fire, Faith & Glory commemorates my second year in pediatric residency in KK Womens & Childrens Hospital. It is an anthology of poems that brings you, the readers, through an emotional trajectory through my various postings across neonatology, high dependency, and the childrens intensive care unit. A sequel to Do They Have Telephones Up in Heaven? this collection pays tribute to the children whom we have lost, children who have recovered well, and children who are still fighting for their lives. This collection also remembers parents and their daily struggles through difficult times. I hope you will all find a poem in here that brings you comfort and heals any open wounds from past experiences. We all have a story to share, and I am thankful to all the patients and their families who have inspired me to write these poems, each with their own little histories. As the title suggests, this anthology is fiercer and more intense and features poems that will make one reflect, persevere, and strive toward a better tomorrow, which we are all working together for. I hope you will remember, as I always do, that you only get a beautiful rainbow after a heavy rainstorm. And no matter how heavy, it will come to an end one day and the sun will shine againbrighter than ever before.

    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....
