Sobre IBD

’Seed of Adam and Other Plays’ (1948) is a collection of existential verse by Charles Williams exploring death, fear and themes of Christian symbolism. Charles Williams (1886-1945) was a British theologian, playwright, novelist and poet. As a member of the ’Inklings’ literary group at Oxford, his work supported a strong sense of narrative. For Williams, spiritual exchanges were an undercurrent to life, and his literary explorations into Christian fantasy writing earned him many followers. This classic work is now being republished in a new modern edition with a specially commissioned introductory biography.

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....
