In Ancestral Voices, the scholar and poet Barton R. Friedman (1935–2009) draws upon a lifetime of deeply felt experience to create this collection. Composed at various points throughout his seventy-four years, the poems animate chronic issues in American society—race, class, war—and also give voice to personal moments of triumph, tragedy, love, and loss. Published now by his wife Sheila, and including remembrances by his family, here is the fruit of a rich and original spirit. 3

Originally written by hand, the author has traversed a fine line betw...

  • 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....

    Barton Freidman demonstrates that, as a cycle, the Cuchulain plays form a paradigm of Yeats’s dramatic career. They trace his progress, the author contends, toward finding a genuine dramatic mode, and examination of this process reveals much about a playwright whose work is simultaneously great literature and extaordinarily effective theater.

  • Poetic Knowing
    Barton R. Friedman
    Barton R. Friedman argues that the languages of literature and science empty many of the same conceits. 'Poetic Knowing' focuses on 'the rhetorical strategies by which scientists and poets' create knowledge, and includes close readings of Yeats, Blake, Tennyson, Williams, and Olson. Scientists are rhetorically engaged in transactions comparable to poets; they fabricate metaphrs...
