"""One of the great masters of Hungarian free verse."" —Éva Bánki ""What are we looking for in our childhood when we take stock of such and such events, sins, tragedies?... A silent poet whose every word I hear."" —László Darvasi ""Real lyrical ingenuity."" —Ferenc Simon ""One afternoon I read through Gyula Jenei's Always Different, more than a hundred pages of poetry, and after the first poems I said to myself that yes, this is my world."" —Vince Fekete ""The culmination of a lyrical material with a rich past."" —Ádám Sebestyén ""One of the most striking registers of Hungarian poetry of the 2000s... So naturally embraces the pulse of the Hungarian language that every memory that is expressed in them thus suddenly emerges from insignificant mundaneness and finds itself confronted with eternity."" —Balázs Fűzfa"
