==Critical response to works==
Publishers Weekly notes, of Hausfrau:"The realism of Anna’s dilemmas and the precise construction of the novel are marvels of the form, and Essbaum chooses her words carefully." Agha Shahid Ali wrote:
"Only the best writers put us right at the site of myth and thus assert, for us, our right to be part of the beginning and end of any world, any heaven. That Jill Alexander Essbaum does it so quietly, so delicately, and puts herself, and us, at the center of Heaven itself leads me only to envy. For how else can one convincingly transcend the domestic? There is simply no self-congratulation in these poems. Just a graceful, magical way of taking oneself - and one's bare uncertainties - for granted.〔"http://www.dartmouth.edu/~upne/bllist.html〕
Of Essbaum's work in general, the critic G.M. Palmer, on his literary blog ''Strong Verse'',〔 writes,
Dancing on the edge of her words one finds despair and salvation, often in the same word. She echoes Donne and Plath and riffs on Eliot but has the precise benefit of being alive and full of our time.〔
