Industry Reviews
"[S]he is unquestionably one of the great living European poets. She's accessible and deeply human and a joy--though it is a dark kind of joy--to read....She is like so many Eastern European writers, an ironist. She writes, especially in her later years, a plain, almost bony verse, and she can stand for the survival, not just of conscience but of imagination, in this last half-century."
Washington Post Book World - Robert Hass (10/06/1996)
"Wit, wisdom and warmth are equally important ingredients in the mixture of qualities that makes her so unusual and every poem of hers so unforgettable."
New York Times Book Review - Stanislaw Baranczak (01/01/1996)
