Warrior Soliloquies

Short and sweet, funny and raw - written with clear insight on life in Buffalo NY and elsewhere, this collection explores history, language, nature and identity. Through her imagination, Trudy Stern skillfully harnesses her own mind, memories, and songs. These poems underline the joy that inhabits food, everyday objects, memories, ancestors and the explorations of a poet grounded in place: Buffalo, Jerusalem, the Ozarks, Vermont, from both Jewish and Buddhist perspectives.
