In a review by Louise Townsend Nicholl, Kent received the following praise:

so far as I know, Louis Kent has never published another book of poems - which is too bad. Robert Hillyer, who was much interested in his work, brought him to me at Dutton's & I agreed on his "true lyrical genius", as Robert said. I had one few hours meeting with him & lunch - a tall young man, incisive & sincere & eager. Perhaps we will see his name again on a book someday. Louise Townsend Nicholl, 1956^[4]
