This is a book of poems that is based on the premise that products of art such as musical composition, painting, sculpture, and architecture can serve as stimuli for the development of original poems. These products of art evoke a range of emotions from love, anger, and hate to anxiety, fear, and melancholy; and they can be expressed in original poems. Forty-four works of art were identified; for example, Rachmaninoff’s Second Piano Concerto, Picasso’s Guernica, Michelangelo’s David, and the Great Pyramid of Giza. For each of the works of art an original poem emphasizing feelings and emotions was developed.

    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....
