However, a close reading reveals under the surface the verses concern serious and daunting subjects, such as human mortality

  • Polishing the Silver
    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....

  • My Paperback Book
    Julian Scutts
    The allegory as a literary device is too often dismissed as being artificial and contrived, yet one scholar admits that an allegory arises spontaneously when a writer allows a symbolic traveller make one step towards a symbolic mountain. Therefore the resultant allegory cannot be subject to the writer’s full control and conscious powers of prediction and determination. It has a...

  • Strange Fits of Passion I Too Have Known
    Julian Scutts
    The picture on the front cover may need a word of explanation. Why should the author appear holding a copy of one of his books? I hope this is not an indication of vanity in my case. I plead that the issue at stake here is reflexivity. After a while authors may find themselves reading long forgotten passages they have written and thus become the critics of their own works. Ine...
