Publisher"s Weekly (April 2000):
The book as a whole is a kind of triumph, one which perhaps does for poetry what David Foster Wallace has done for prose fiction. Salon:
There is a gravity to Mark Levine"s second book, "Enola Gay," the first of three volumes in a promising new poetry series from the University of California Press.
The poems in it bear a sense of having struggled up from beneath great pressure to reach the page.
