‘There is an extraordinary eye in these poems: an eye that fuses images from Indian mythology with precise observations of the English countryside and primarily of its bird life. The effect is startling, like a brilliant tapestry, or as if Edward Thomas had met Rabindranath Tagore. But the voice is thoroughly modern, warm, engaging, full of insight and wonder.’ – Vicki Feaver

‘A collection of quiet pleasure, the subject handled with confidence, small ordinary details suddenly significant, as though a gifted flower arranger had composed bridal posies out of wood and weed.’ – The New Writer

Reviews of Flageolets at the Bazaar

09 June 2007

Reviewed by customer: Mary Everard

Judith's poetry has extraordinary depth of meaning. There is something new to find upon each re-reading. I enjoy the brilliance in her visualizations, where colour, sound and texture are brought to life. I would like to begin each day with a cup of coffee and one of Judith's poems . . .
