Sobre IBD

The city is beautiful to paint at night on the porch. Here you hear the noise well, you see things going with their airs, you touch them with the bare hands, you smell, and taste. When you move further, you see the smell at the crime scenes. These poems look at the city or the chain of towns and villages that looks completely like a city, the urban life’s vibrant essence, complexities, and unique character of this city. The city that delves into the bustling streets with diverse communities and these are its truth and beauty. However, we cannot forget the questions of the meditative mind. Why the humanity’s obsession with controlling its environment? Has the city a religion and the spirituality, and what are these?

The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

    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.

  • இந்த நிழல்
    Jacob Kobina Ayiah Mensah
    'வேறொரு இடத்தில் இருந்து இரயில் சப்தம். ஹெட்லைட்கள் புகைகின்றன. அதிலிருந்து ஒரு ஆப்பிள் என் திசையில் கீழே விழுகிறது. இது கரடுமுரடான தொடுகிறது. இது போன்ற வாசனை ஒரு துப்பும். நான் அதை கடித்தேன், அது உப்பு. நான் வேறு இடத்திலிருந்து முழுமையாக இருக்கிறேன்.
