"Astonishingly, they are as wholly personal as Anne Sexton's most intimate poems. Her metaphoric strength has never been greater -- really funny, among other things, a dark, dark laughter" -C.K. Williams

"I asked a poet friend one time what it was that poets did, and he thought awhile and then he told me, 'They extend the language.' Anne Sexton does a deeper favor for me: she domesticates my terror, examines it and describes it, teaches it some tricks which will amuse me, then lets it gallop into my forest once more." — from the foreword by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.
