Sobre IBD

In Search and Rescue: Poems, Michael Chitwood gives us accessible, lively, and touching poetry. Chitwood has a gift for syntax and offers touching descriptions of the natural world, life experiences, and spirituality. He moves effortlessly from ideas as varied as exploring what it is to be a child to how water works. Chitwood gives us a world we know yet seldom see: the world as it is.

    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....

  • A Day of It
    Michael Chitwood
    A Day of It, the ninth book of poems by Michael Chitwood, is a fanfare for the commonplace and the oft overlooked, both among places and people. In the spirit of Seamus Heaney, Chitwood’s poetry seeks the whereabouts of the 'thin places' in the everyday--an abandoned barn, a weedy roadside, even an antique sewing machine. The dwindling tobacco fields and shuttered textile mills...

  • Poor-Mouth Jubilee
    Michael Chitwood
    Advance praise: Andrew Hudgins says, 'No book about happiness has made me half as happy as I was made by POOR-MOUTH JUBILEE, Michael Chitwood's sublime book about sorrow. Chitwood gives sorrow all its due respect - and no more, so the book is often laugh-out funny in its wisdom. POOR-MOUTH JUBILEE pulses with the exhilaration of being alive.' And Sydney Lea says, 'At a time whe...
