Moore's first book Poems (Poems, 1921) was published by friends without the knowledge of the author.

On the publication of Selected Poems (Selected Poems, 1935), Moore became one of the major American poets. Her collection of poems (Collected Poems, 1951) noted the Pulitzer and National Book Award. Critical articles collected mostly in the books of Preferences (Predilections, 1955) and Anthology of Marianne Moore (A Marianne Moore Reader, 1961).

Moore believed that the poet must be a 'literalist of the imagination', his work - this 'imaginary gardens, which inhabit the real toads': such is the art form to embody all that is usually regarded as ugly and antipoetichnym. On his poems Moore talked about as 'a kind of meeting flies in amber'. In search of 'flies', it focuses any oddities like armadillo shell and footwear Bracers, . or the most ordinary occupations, . such baseball, . sometimes Antiquities, . but always recreated unconventional, . with a microscopically precise details,

Equally unexpected, as shaped fabric, installation of numerous quotations from various sources in the mouths of different people. Metric drawing lines, invented by itself, strict and so thin, that is not immediately evident. The string length is determined by the number of syllables rather than the number of stress. Rhymes are never intrusive. Although Moore never worn by the formal perfection of his poems, it is certainly one of the most skilful masters of contemporary poetry.
