El título de este puñado de textos es, en realidad, un verso de Li Po. Tal osadía supone un acto de profunda humildad y, al mismo tiempo, gran soberbia. Por lo primero, confieso mi deuda con los viejos poetas chinos y japoneses, a los que solo conozco a través de las magníficas traducciones de tantos y tantos entusiastas de aquellos maestros. Visité sus páginas como Matsuo Basho visitó, en el siglo XVII, los impresionantes paisajes de Japón. Por lo segundo, sé que colocar un verso de Li Po frente a mis textos anuncia, desde ya, un fracaso inminente. Así pues, escribo desde la tradición, y en ella quedaré desvanecido.En todo caso, el verso resume bien los motivos principales del libro: la ebriedad, la naturaleza. A ellos, como súbitas reverberaciones, acuden otros: la amistad, la guerra, el desamor y la melancolía. No hay nada en el libro que me pertenezca, nada. Sin embargo, no hay nada en él que no sea efecto de la más exaltada comunión.—Juan Cristóbal Pérez Paredes 4

    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....
