There seem to be a few noteworthy poets in every generation, those who channel the zeitgeist from a clarifying distance, an artful remove. Noelle Kocot may well belong to this tradition.
–Amy Newlove Schroeder, Boston Review
Kocot's gift as a poet is being able to explain such complexity with such uncompromised frankness.
–David Peak, The Rumpus
Kocot's creativity engenders an excitement comparable to being twelve years old, exposed to good poetry or music or art for the first time, and knowing that, for better or worse, things have been bent.
–Nick Sturm, Coldfront Magazine
