Tamiko Dooley opens her collection Bara wa Shizuka with Tsuru...making a crane out of paper, which establishes the cultural context... Dooley’s poems of love, loyalty, chance & change are...a kind of origami, anecdote folded into image, word-sound folded into personal recollection... Roses are Silent might be read as a contemporary pastoral. ’Not for me the serenity of pasture... Take me on a train into Tokyo’. John Greening, poet, critic and playwright.Balanced between languages, cultures & traditions, Tamiko Dooley’s Roses are Silent is filled with family memory and the tangled cats’ cradles of the sensual world, in all its terror and joy... Dooley and her delicate word music make for a persuasive, propulsive guide.Adam Horovitz, poet, performer and editor.These pieces transcend location & straddle cultures. Each poem is a delicate work that explores the beautiful, fleeting, & difficult moments, in daily experience; capturing a unique sensuality that reminds us of the bittersweet nature of life.Dr Michael Tsang, Programme Director & Lecturer in Japanese Studies, Birkbeck UniversityDooley brings an exquisite sense of the potential in different forms...to a meditation on lives & loves... There is both formal mastery here & a sharp, sympathetic sense for human confusion. Tell me how it happened; so she does. Luke Pitcher, Fellow & Tutor in Classics; Associate Professor in Classical Languages & Literature, Somerville, University of Oxford.

    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....
