Review
...Artaud deserves his place as one of theatre's foremost thinkers.... With cogent commentary by Claude Schumacher and Brian Singleton. (Book News, Inc.)
A must for any serious academic scholar on theater, Artaud's work is also a...thought-provoking read on the serious critical nature of the medium itself. (The Bloomsbury Review)
One of the great daring mapmakers of consciousness in extremis. (Susan Sontag)
