In The Persimmon is an Event Mike Corrao explores the yet-to-be-created field of Ovidian Dynamics (a study of the body’s metamorphic potentials) as the reader / subject undergoes a series of unwieldy changes. These aphoristic poems are malleable segments, unfolding, like the Persimmon, from seed to tree.

    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....

  • Desert Tiles
    Mike Corrao
    Desert Tiles brings a fresh spin on the 'Corraoesque' theme of text / image coming 'alive', becoming a 'semiotic organism,' undertaken here via the twin metaphors of text as a desert and reading as necromancy. The desert here is both literal (as the ever-shifting 'dune-script' of meaning) and a place 'deserted', a place of the always-already absent voice, into which the reader ...
  • Rituals Performed in the Absence of Ganymede
    Mike Corrao

RITUALS PERFORMED IN THE ABSENCE OF GANYMEDE takes the text beyond the physical, where the reader and text enter the search for a body that can contain you both. INTRODUCT...
