Sobre IBD

'This collection is savagely, sagely, unctuously, unrestrainedly, wisely, Wildeanly and Aesopianly hilarious. There is no let up for the accumulation of insight accrued by humanity, by empires and civilizations past and present. Caleshu is having the time of his life playing the Shakespearian fool who genially welcomes us into the carousel of his mind. I love every page of this dazzling book.' -Daljit Nagra

  • 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....

  • A Dynamic Exchange Between Us
    Anthony Caleshu
    “Caleshu’s new collection is magnificent. There’s something uniquely pleasurable and painful about the blinding insights in every prose poem. It’s like someone looking you in the eye and, unusually, feeling compelled to hold their gaze. What really moves me here is the way we hedge our disappointment, play our joy against our self-awareness. So much love and fear and grace and ...

  • The Victor Poems
    Anthony Caleshu
    'Anthony Caleshu’s Victor is a wild ride, an arctic adventure, a spirited quest narrative, a mad love poem to the imagination in all its unstrung wild joys. The exuberance of address in this poem is contagious, at once zany and intimate, descriptive and lyric, it’s pedal to the metal and won’t let up. Caleshu is an extremely gifted and accomplished poet and a true romantic to b...
