About her first book of poetry, _Poems of Yes and No_, Marianne Moore
wrote: "I surely find good in the _Poems of Yes and No_.... The
clearness of the book is certainly beautiful." Wallace Stevens
was impressed by _Poems of Yes and No_ and wrote: "Your poems
give one a sense of intelligence and sensibility." Alfred Kreymborg
was enthusiastic about the book: "You have found a style of your own
and developed it. I say yes to your _Poems of Yes and No_. This is a
distinguished volume as a whole. I wish you well with this warm book.
Any poet might envy the courage and artistry of what you say, or
rather sing, there." Further commendation came from Robert Hillyer,
who wrote: "Your poems are moving and unusual.... A distinguished
achievement!"
