Ian Adam Bravestone thinks serious poetry is not just for academics, but could regain common support, if poets would start writing about issues that real people deal with. He proudly claims to be one of America's "pedestrian" poets, and writes with a passion that is easily absorbed by everyday people.
"Sex, romance and love are all multifarious elations which have been diffused by our speeding cultures. Genuine, healthy romance and sensuality is a needed enterprise in our culture of confused, pornographic, sexually stressed, disposable, internet-speeded social experiments, especially from a man’s perspective."
Introduction, Taste the Textures
Reviews/Comments on Bravestone's writings:
"A vibrant anthology from perhaps the most sought after male voice in the realm of poetry today...."
"He has forged a unique poetic style that gives the reader an authentic glimpse on the joys of love, sensuality, and passion in a tasteful manner."
"He is a man unafraid of his feelings; with copious passion and a chivalrous spirit, he entices the reader into his world of warmth and masculinity, maintaining an integral sense of believability by way of his stripped-down, pragmatic style."
