Sobre IBD

'There’s much to atone for in how I manage my world: The absence of a god is no excuse.'Herb Levine writes spiritual Jewish poems from a personal and non-theist perspective. His poems ask us to bring the values that religion offers us-gratitude, awe and responsibility-into our everyday experience without having to be grateful to, responsible to or in awe of a supernatural being. An Added Soul: Poems for a New Old Religion carries forward the themes he began to develop in his first book, Words for Blessing the World (2017). Taken together, the two books offer those seeking to reconstruct and renew Judaism valuable resources for the Jewish holidays and alternatives for worship.

    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....
