About The Book Tears and Bitter Smiles, a collection of poems - written by the Haitian-American Poet Alfred Reynolds - is filled with emotions, feelings, and poetic qualities. The poet, with his high powers of creativity, expresses himself with humility, and sometimes, with arrogance to elevate his anger, his sadness, and his joy to a worldwide audience who will find themselves becoming an accomplice of his imagination. Prose after prose, the reader won’t be able to let it go. The curiosity and the needs to visit the poet’s world in search of fantasies and to enter inside his mind to analyze the source of his inspiration are a catalyst for questions that may have no answers. Tears and Bitter Smiles touches almost all aspects of human life: from religion to politics, and from race relations to romance. It doesn’t only stop there! In Tears and Bitter Smiles, the reader will travel sometimes to the Middle East or to the Caribbean to understand history. War and public policies are also discussed in an honest way based on the author’s perception, ingenuity, and wisdom.

    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....
