THE WORLDS WIFE CRITICS Review’ (a magazine) contributor Jane Satterfield called the collection "masterful ‘Antioch subversions of myth and history”. "The World's Wife appeals and astonishes”. "Duffy's mastery of personae allows for seamless movement through the centuries; in this complementary chorus, there's voice and vision for the coming ones." An Economist reviewer felt that the collection "is savage, trenchant, humorous and wonderfully inventive at its best." Ray Olson, writing in Booklist, concluded that "Duffy's takes on the stuff of legends are . . . richly rewarding."
