Tender Geometries, the author’s first full-length collection, brings together a selection of writing exploring networks of connection. ’The Tangles’, ’Nylonase’ and ’Sea Pens Pastoral Net’, are networks as opposed to serialised writing which feed, entangle, pierce & elucidate within one another. Inter-relational praxis and speciesism weave precariously through a soiled syntax of damage and spoil, stretching the theology of hope toward explorations of the unfamiliar and the culpable erasures yet attentive to a different world. 'Indignation at environmental injury and economic corrosion gives us indicative texts capable of sensing what is being damaged and waylaying us at that point to be continuously co-invented - but this can only be reached through an intricate lyric inoffensiveness once again testing the scope of poetry itself. Ambivalent, self-contaminating vitalities are combed through for their appraisals of renewal but which are not thread-bare so much as thread-aware, tangle-replete enough to take part in reprisals of praise.' -Peter Larkin

    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....

    'In this brilliant collection, Mark Dickinson ranges - with a passionate, weary restlessness - over bird, plant, monetary, sexual, and internet networks, but mocks any easy connection between these. His tone varies from lovingly intimate to bitingly witty, picking up language from taxonomic systems, social media, travel and nature writing, but all the while retaining a lyric in...
