Sobre IBD

Beware of Bacon Bits is similar to its literary sister, Pigs Don't Wear Pearls, in that the main character is, and the theme still revolves around, a pig. This time, however, the pig has grown up and is now imparting wisdom to his son. The story opens up with a glimpse into the home of the Azur's (pronounced 'as you are'). Bo Azur Jr. (Boaz you are) has just turned ten and is wrestling with what can often be one's biggest foe, maturity. During a walk with his dad, he discovers that there is strength in weakness, that a life of significance is often one of sacrifice, and that we must eventually put away childish things. Beware of Bacon Bits seeks to debunk the myth about what it really means to be a man and instead encourages boys to no longer settle for being less than who they are meant to be. 3

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....
