Sobre IBD

Kites is Jonathan Chaves’s second book of original poems. These are written both in free forms (but always with rhythm and general comprehensibility) and neo-formal sonnets, ballads, etc. The theme running through the collection is a search for truth, culminating in a series of four sonnets inspired by explicitly Christian subjects: Christmas, Easter, etc.

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

    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.
