Ode to loving
May 19th, 2021

In her second collection of poems, blue gait (Mother Tongue $19.95) due out in October, shauna paull sings the praises of a way of life that doesn’t have material concerns at its core but which looks to the world as a loving place. Her “songs” focus on elders, environmentalists, daughters and lovers, and the joys of simple gifts made by hand. paull has worked extensively with migrant and refugee women, advocating for labour and mobility rights, and poverty alleviation. She represented Canada at the UN Commission on the Status of Women in 2006. 978-1-896949-88-8
