'Tantalizingly irreverent; Camner’s work smacks of the deliciously absurd with a point. He is a brilliantly bizarre poet and master of the surreal.' - Lenny DellaRocca The Poetry Museum'Camner defies the traditional aesthetic concepts of poetry. He targets a world of ideas in a rather active way as opposed to the more passive, meditative aspects found in most poetry. There is a linguistic simplicity to his poems, an almost transparent quality, over a rather complex web of experience and thought. His poetry is life... ’All you have to do is look’ - The obvious and not so obvious.' - Marta Braunstein, editor Cambio Literary Journal 'Camner writes in terse, stark, real verse that would make Hemingwayraise his scotch glass in honor.' - New Times Newspaper 'Camner’s poetic style is reminiscent of Raymond Chandler’s detective writing; descriptive and terse with interesting plot lines. His characters are certainly the product of a vivid imagination.' - The Comstock Review'Camner’s ’humour noir’ is apparent in his poetics, his spirited voice and unabashed freedom - so alive, even in his earliest poems.' - Peter Hargitai'A literary detour, and well worth the trip.' - Village Voice

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.

    Howard Camner
    There was a time when I had goals and dreams for my life, but now all I do is go to birthday parties. When I’m at these birthday parties I’ve noticed that the kids have fun, the women yak it up, but the men are as lost as lost could be. They are absolutely miserable. They remind me of the last scenes of the 1962 cult classic 'Carnival of Souls' where all the lifeless spirits ju...
