Poet C. K. Williams, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for poetry, said the following about her work: "Gently and insistently Elisabeth Murawski's work probes the wounds at the interstices of knowledge and experience. From the sadness of domestic love and tragedy to the exaltations of consciously being in history, to the most subdued cry of disappointment towards a God, there's a rigor and a spirit in her poems, both moving and gratifying."
