Sobre IBD

All of Elaine Randell’s earlier books are now out of print, and this volume serves to give an overview of her entire career, from 1970 to today, covering her early lyric poems to pastorals and to searing documentary poems, often in a speaking voice, that are drawn from her professional life, where, as a social worker, she deals with children at risk.

    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....

  • The Meaning of Things
    Elaine Randell
    ‘Elaine Randell’s writing was jump-started early by the outpouring of experimental small-press poetry and publishing that accompanied the emergence of pop art.

The poetry associated with this moment adopted informal means to freshen its reader relations across the same frontier. R...
