Sobre IBD

These are love songs in the broadest sense, some dealing with inept love and the ironies and moral hypocrisies of sex and gender; but many more - in energetic, contentious, often twinkle-in-the-eye poems - dealing with moral dilemmas ranging from abortion to vertical-mindedness. The poems are 'accessible' and rich in imagery, story, characters, and passion. And many are presented in voices as varied as those of Hildegard von Bingen and Gita Smith, Bag Lady, as Oedipus and a deadbeat dad; as Death Mother and a Chinese student at Tiananmen Square.

    ‘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....
