Elizabeth Frank once described Van Duyn in the Nation as “a poet who usually tries harder than any of her contemporaries to coax affirmation out of the waste and exhaustion of modern life.” Known for its formal precision and exacting intelligence, Van Duyn’s work has been described by the poet Alfred Corn as “one of the most convincing bodies of work in our poetry.” (the poetry foundation, 2024)
