This revised 2023 edition contains work that was found in the collection Requited Ecstasy and other poetry that was formerly not included in From the Tree. I hope this to be a complete anthology, which in combination with Love in the Time of Covid, represents the majority of my poetry. This work is all pre-covid and pre-death of my mother, one event which changed the world and one my perception of the world. If you are holding this work in your hands, I hope that it gives some epiphany into the wonder and horror at the simplicity of simply being alive.

    ‘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....

The pandemic disrupted the abnormality of normality trading its abnormalities for totalitarian edicts to see if people would do anything to stay alive, take a trip, to pretend things would be normal again if they submitted. A time of mask covered faces convinced by fear and ...
