Of Padgett?s work, poet David Lehman wrote in Poetry: "The great legacy of French Surrealist and Dadaist writing makes itself felt in his poems."Voice Literary Supplement contributor Karen Volkman, reviewing Padgett?s 1995 New and Selected Poems, commented: This is a fine sampling of a restless, hilarious, and haunting lyric intelligence, a ?phony? whose variable voices form a rare and raucous orchestration: the real thing.
