Last Evening With All the Versions of Myself is a collection of poems in five sections. 'Once Upon a Time' deals with childhood and coming of age through a reimagining of fairy tales. 'Love is Dangerous' navigates the fault lines and terrain of loving. 'Romancing the Other' explores the lineage and consequences of addiction. 'A Double-Edged Sword' focuses on the nature of duality in ourselves and others. And finally, 'New Skin' illustrates the resolution of conflicts the poet has experienced as a daughter, wife, ex-wife, lover, friend, and woman on her journey to a home within herself. The poems carry a universal theme of vacancy or hollowness as well as a yearning and search to arrive at wholeness. Last Evening With All the Versions of Myself is Arra’s tenth collection of poetry and revisits many themes and challenges she’s addressed in previous collections but now brings them to a place of personal acceptance and serenity. 6

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...

    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....
