Sobre IBD

This is the new collection by one of the best contemporary American poets, George Kalamaras known for his exploration of the surreal. According to the poet John Olson, 'Kalamaras is unique among poets for his clear sense of the sublime combined with an unabashed sensuality. He has a sense of the sacred.'

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...

  • Robert Desnos Finds His Sleep Medicines Beneath Bachelard’s Floorboards
    George Kalamaras
    'How simple and strange everything is,' to quote Robert Desnos, one of two epigraphs beginning this collection. It could serve as a distillation of Kalamaras’s aesthetic.
