Sobre IBD

The arrangement of the eighty-one poems inside 'Circus Americana' creates a story arc. The first two sections-'Not Getting Along' and 'Bewilderment'-set the stage for the third section, 'Burned Out.' The last two sections, 'Friends' and 'I Love You,' share incitements for enjoying more of the show. For you, my reader, I wish a sense of enlightenment (however false, however fleeting) and a little fun.Yale University graduate Michael Scofield received his MFA in Writing from Vermont College of Fine Arts in 2002. In 2006, Sunstone Press published 'Whirling Backward into the World,' his second collection, and 'Acting Badly,' the first novel in his Santa Fe trilogy, followed by 'Making Crazy' and 'Smut Busters.' 3

    ‘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.
