As a depicter of hardscrabble, northern Vermont, Judith Janoo is all but peerless. She is regional in the same sense that Frost-and so much compelling poetry-essentially is. She's no mere a provincial, however, than her famous New England predecessor: within a few pages, she goes from gimlet-eyed renderings of her own upcountry locale-see Men at the General Store, say- to a place where locale means something utterly different-see Chiang Mai, City of Temples. But although her eye for eloquent detail is stunning, she can be a brilliant allegorist too, as in Can't Steal a Beat from Our Swing, but an allegorist so deft that the punch in the gut comes ex post facto. Stunning.
