Description
Each of Judy Gaudet's poems is a path to somewhere resonant, redolent of memories and anticipations both bittersweet and beautiful. She traces the paths the mind and body takes purposefully, as well as those it happens onto, by chance or consequence. The poems light on home and history, travel afar, return again. They are marked by the toughness of wholly looking and experiencing and are leavened by wry humour and true gratitude for the beauty and magic that touch the earth's days -- and our human ones, tripping over the stones of her path. Her Teeth Are Stones is Judy Gaudet's first full-length poetry book, following her chapbook Poems, you say.
