"Nancy Willard's imagination--in verse or prose, for children or adults--builds castles stranger than any mad King of Bavaria ever built. She imagines with a wonderful concreteness. But also, she takes real language and by literal-mindedness turns it into the structure of dream." --Donald Hall, The New York Times
"Ms. Willard uses her poetic gifts to illuminate the ordinary events of life, and to transform the emotions of daily life--joy, sadness, loneliness and hope--into palpable, almost tactile images." --Michiko Kakutani
Praise for Nancy Willard's novel Things Invisible to See (1985):
"[Things Invisible to See] has the quality of a fairy tale ... a paradigm of life as a Manichean conflict between good and evil." --Susan Fromberg Schaeffer
