“David Filer’s poems are like the interior of a warm house—small fire, pleasant chairs, good company waiting for you. Then, he opens the door so you can come in and rest. Filer lets you hear what is coming to his heart is celebratory and satisfying. Few poets write with such understanding of who they are, what they seek and what amounts to meaning in the world. Such plain spoken, clarifying poems." —David Biespiel President, The Attic Institute Author. The Book of Men and Women Now retired from teaching and the law, David Filer splits his time between his home in Portland and his second home on Puget Island in the lower Columbia River. He was raised in the low California desert before moving to Oregon in 1975. David Filer’s chapbooks include Night Verse, The Landscape There, Weather Patterns, and Housekeeping. Besides reading at Wordstock in Portland, he was recorded by the Lewis and Clark College’s Oregon Poetic Voices project. He serves on the board of directors of Mountain Writers Series, founded in 1973 to support creative writing in the Pacfic Northwest.

    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.

    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.
