About this book
Kites is Jonathan Chaves's second book of original poems. These are written both in free forms (but always with rhythm and general comprehensibility) and neo-formal sonnets, ballads, etc. The theme running through the collection is a search for truth, culminating in a series of four sonnets inspired by explicitly Christian subjects: Christmas, Easter, etc.
