The Road Taken by John Hudson brings together three sequences of poems created for walks in London and France. 'Shapeshifter', written for a small rural community in France, explores the transformations a community uses and undergoes in order to thrive on a daily basis. 'Stride' draws inspiration from the poet’s cultural roots on London’s East End and undertakes a twelve mile walk across varied terrain, socially, physically, spiritually and psychologically. 'A Strange Guide to Places' walks a thirty four kilometre path in a sequence of poems that can be read in either direction and takes the reader on a journey beyond the confines of physical geography into a landscape of imaginative possibilities.

    Edward V Bonner
