'for her unmistakable poetic voice that with austere beauty makes individual existence universal' - Nobel Prize in Literature 2020

'Her writing's emotional and rhetorical intensity are beyond dispute. Not once in six books has she wavered from a formal seriousness, an unhurried sense of control and a starkness of expression that, like a scalpel, slices the mist dwelling between hope and pain.' -Washington Post

'Characteristically sure-footed, Glück speaks to our time in a voice that is onstage, but heard from the wings.' - Publishers Weekly

Recipient of the Nobel Prize in Literature 2020

Winner of The Pulitzer Prize for Poetry 1993

Helen Vendler wrote in The New Republic: 'Louise Glück is a poet of strong and haunting presence. Her poems, published in a series of memorable books over the last twenty years, have achieved the unusual distinction of being neither 'confessional' nor 'intellectual' in the usual senses of those words, which are often thought to represent two camps in the life of poetry'.

What a strange book The Wild Iris is, appearing in this fin-de-siècle, written in the language of flowers. It is a lieder cycle, with all the mournful cadences of that form. It wagers everything on the poetic energy remaining in the old troubadour image of the spring, the Biblical lilies of the field, natural resurrection.
