[The]
slide into and away from violence energizes her work.
. . .
Like Rilke,
she
is
a poet trying to leave the cerebral behind her
in
order to move into a
more spiritual realm via the senses.
- The
Indiana Review
Like all successful spell casters, Nance Van Winckel knows just what to
offer, just what to withhold. And through these assured, finely crafted
poems, wejoLlow her brilliant summons into all the worlds oj "after-ing";
desire, pursuit, the shaping oj time.

Orlen
is
a
wonderful poet and one oj the best practitioners ojfree verse
writing today.
The
sounds oj his poems bang and glide. Mostfine poetry
strikes the mind and heart.
This is
true oj Orlen as well, but his poems also
strike the ear.
They
jeel good in the mouth.
- Stephen Dobyns
Orlen's Bridge oj Sighs, like Eliot's "Pruj'rock,
"
is
filled with many human
voices, but they are the voices around
Us,
the recognizable voices ojpeople
we know too well.
.. .
He builds from memory, from old photographs,
mental snapshots oj the past, and he knows where
to
break a line and also
how to break your heart.
