Reviews
"A bold, galvanizing hybrid of fiction, interview, film theory, German history, scientific inquiry, and his cosmology of cinema." -- KGB Bar Book Review
"Alexander Kluge is a gigantic figure in the German cultural landscape. He exemplifies-along with Pasolini-what is most vigorous and original in the European idea of the artist as intellectual, the intellectual as artist....Essential, brilliant." -- Susan Sontag
"Alexander Kluge, that most enlightened of writers." -- W.G. Sebald
