Ima Villacañas’s work comprises five books of poetry, several short stories, over thirty articles and four academic books. She is also co-editor of six volumes of Estudios de la mujer en el ámbito de los países de habla inglesa (Universidad Complutense de Madrid). Critics have singled out the liric personality of her poetry as well as her mastery of poetic forms. Some examples: Antonio González-Guerrero wrote of Jazz: “In this world of poetry, where deceit and enmity often abound and where many are called but few chosen, such a personal and melodious voice as that of Ima Villacañas is a joy to the ear of the critic.” On Dublín, José María Balcells wrote: “The book Dublín was awarded the prize of the I Bienal Internacional de Poesía Eugenio de Nora and this will come as no surprise to its readers since they will find the book a highly original creation both in so far as the rhymical techniques deployed as also in the tone and points of view presented”.
