Sobre IBD

This collection of poems was written in the process of recovery from an eating disorder and treatment-resistant depression. It contains love notes, gratitude, grief, pain, healing, and change over the course of a difficult journey in free verse form. Distilled in it are all of the thorny, difficult, wonderful experiences and people met along the way. It acknowledges conditions without shying away from their ugliness, while appreciating the beauty that can be found in the most ordinary and unexpected places. May it bring a little light to the dark if that is what you need.

The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

    Edward V Bonner

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....
