Media Reviews
'One of the freshest and bravest talents to emerge in British poetry - any poetry - for years' - Eavan Boland, Independent on Sunday'Poetry, like love, depends on a kind of recognition. So often with Duffy does the reader say, Yes, that's it exactly , that she could well become the representative poet of the present day, much as Philip Larkin came to seem for the time between Attlee and Thatcher' - Sean O'Brien, Sunday Times
