Critical reception

Reviews were mixed for Fitzgerald's debut collection, The Late Parade, published by W.W. Norton/Liveright in 2013. David Kirby in The New York Times Book Review wrote: "There are plenty of poets who are word-drunk and plenty of others who slap down allusions faster than a blackjack dealer. But I can’t think of anyone today who is dealing in both currencies as fluidly as Fitzgerald. The result is a poetry as lush as any of Keats’s odes, as textured as a corridor in the Louvre." Annalisa Pesek, writing for Library Journal, described the book as "an overstuffed collection, in a vocabulary overwrought with irony and busyness" and called the poems "airless, written in overambitious language that sounds desperate". Julian Gewirtz, writing for the Boston Review, said "the effects deployed can feel overwhelming or gaudy, almost mannerist".
