Praise for Leslie Ullman:
Progress on the Subject of Immensity, University of New Mexico Press, 2013
"For over thirty years now, Leslie Ullman has steadily refined a poetry of the most acute and lyrically precise mindfulness, of what one of her poems calls the 'greater alertness.' This method has been forged in part by her ability to render the harsh beauties of the southwestern landscapes that have been her adopted home. More important still, however, is her almost shamanistic willingness to visit those liminal states between waking and dreaming, conventional reality and phantasm-states that sometimes offer menace, sometimes wonderment. This is all to say that Leslie Ullman is a poet of the first order, writing at the height of her very considerable powers." -David Wojahn
Slow Work Through Sand, Iowa Poetry Prize, 1998
"Leslie Ullman has the ability to spin illuminating spells through and around the matter of earth and life. Her vision penetrates with an attention as careful and as transforming as day through clear water, as moonlight on stone. She is an artisan with words, and the results are poems embodying the intricacy and beauty of the subjects they honor." -Pattiann Rogers
Dreams by No One's Daughter, Pitt Poetry Series, 1987
"In her new volume, Dreams by No One's Daughter, Leslie Ullman traces with characteristic grace the urgencies of one's passage through a life-from the fabular weathers of childhood into those hard climes of adulthood, and along the endless currents of dream. There is a quiet, a composure here that is both beautiful and disarming. Contemplative, precise, these poems instruct us in the delights of their world."-David St. John
