 Terrible y dulcísimo, enigmático y sabio, es a quien se evoca en este libro, el gran exiliado de la conciencia contemporánea: el padre. Padre todo sentido desde el cual   se pretenda entender –y que sigue siendo inactual–: el Dios Padre religioso, punto de referencia de quienes aún buscan con obstinación y humildad el sentido de su propia vida; o bien, el padre espiritual, ancla de consuelo, confianza, consejo, el  que plasmó Alda Merini en la figura de David Maria Turoldo: «Un cura que disipaba las tinieblas, que acariciaba las carnes ya pútridas por la distancia, un cura que era la memoria».El padre aquí representa simbólicamente el origen y, al mismo tiempo, la Nada hacia donde todo va. Lo buscamos sin saberlo como ciegos o sonámbulos, a veces nos alejamos de él con rabia y soberbia, o lo olvidamos con incipiente vanidad. Aun así, él jamás nos abandona y a nosotros no nos es dado abandonarlo, tal parecen sugerir estos poemas, a veces visionarios y dolientes,  pero de nuevo con gran fuerza expresiva.Invirtiendo los términos de la relación filial, la poeta de hecho se pregunta: «¿Pero no es el hombre quien sostiene a Dios y, como un eterno Anquises, lo lleva sobre sus hombros y lo hace atravesar ese fondo de infinita soledad que es la vida?».

    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....
