引用

  • Judith Hall’s translations of the ancient poet known as J II read as richly researched and imaginatively restored for a contemporary audience... The book is such a complete forgery that it includes a scholarly introduction to J II and footnotes throughout. All of Hall's efforts add up to a powerful, imaginative experiment in poetry.
    出典: American Poet, The Journal of the Academy of American Poets, 2007 (2007年)
  • In the presence of one's own verbal facility, a poet may discover various methods of making things more difficult for herself... Miss Hall makes genuine poems of considerable power.
    出典: Henry Taylor, The Washington Times, 1998 (1998年)
