Sobre IBD

Bruce Bond’s new book of poetry, The Plural of Water, offers a trilogy of sequences that explore the relation of the unconscious--our denials, affinities, passions, and self-divisions--to our ability to perceive and negotiate the crises of our contemporary moment. Through a series of lyrics, both personal and historical, the book’s sections constitute parts of an integrated whole that seeks a deeper understanding of the psychological roots of ethics: traumatic fracture, ecological holism, and the ineffable, multiple, communal dimensions of personhood, drawn to and from the dark of all we love, dread, and labor to transform.
