`[Emily Critchley] has incorporated influences from popular culture
and from a more street-wise feminist critique. Her poetry ... is
combative, intellectual and probing but this seems tempered by an
upbeat and more popular sense of engagement, which makes her
unusual and interesting [...] a genuine form of public poetry,
which can embrace both pleasure and critique without being either
chic posturing or a sell-out to the market, such as it exists
within poetry publishing! The thing I most enjoy about Critchley's
poetry is the way in which she manages to suggest an ongoing sense
of `self-dialogue' within her writing. Whether she's talking about
love [...] or politics or art or academic work, there's always an
inner-dialogue going on, a self-assertiveness questioned in the
light of a relationship to the `public sphere'.' -Steve Spence
