Sobre IBD

Author’s note: I’m in my mid-eighties, and I’ve just finished writing this collection of poems drawn from my boyhood years. They’re not poems about my early life-they’re poems from my early life.Each poem arose from a separate journey. I went back, became the boy I once was, then took a snapshot of something happening in that place and time.The place is a small farming and coal mining community in Western Pennsylvania. The time is my boyhood years, 1929-1937 or thereabouts.I’m sending these snapshots to my children and grandchildren. I’m also offering them to you, hoping you’ll enjoy them.Robert OliverAugust 2008

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....
