The title of this collection hints at the way the poet registers the sounds in his poems as visuals. Readers will encounter poems about sex, love, lust, death, whores, evil, cakes, tablets, cats, public speaking, haikus, gym, the tsunami in Asia, ageing, tripping, clubbing, plus a few whimsical pieces--all colored by synaesthesia. The poet wrote most of them in free verse, but he didn’t forget to put in a couple of rhymes in a few, to underpin the painted or drawn sounds.

  • 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....
