"One of the finest poets around.... Eggs in the Lake overflows with poetic vision, but nothing is ever pretentious or done for effect." -- Nona Balakian, Former staff reviewer:The New York Times, author Critical Encounters

"visionary and powerful. With tremendous vitality.... Gioseffi is a gifted , graceful and moving writer." -- Galway Kinnell, National Book Award and Pulitzer Prize Poet, New York University

" In Word Wounds ... she wounds and seduces to litanize and heal.... The work's been described as 'mythopoeic, visionary, healing original and irrisistible." -- William Allen, Chelsea

"Gioseffi celebrates and laments her life and heritage with a voice, breath, and scope that might be likened to Allen Ginsberg." -- American Book Review

"Gioseffi is one of the school of strong epic poets. Few women take on the page like a Ginsberg, a Baraka or a Whitman... In Word Wounds and Water Flowers, sometimes her voice is full volume, full tilt, strapping, vigorous, then it reels with tenderness...." -- Grace Cavalieri, Poet Lore, Host of N.P.R.'s The Poet & The Poem

"A vital international author, dedicated to planetary survival." -- Cecilia Ceriani, El Pais

"Anyone who thinks that a poet cannot write about important, serious contemporary subjects without the burden of rhetoric should take a lesson from Daniela Gioseffi." -- Philip Appleman, Confrontation.
