The Work of Animation

Rezensionen

"Nowell Smith begins and ends with Hopkins, giving circular coherence, but each chapter is individually 'essayistic,' offering a 'speculative poetics.' ... what is explored here is explored brilliantly. ... this is a fascinating work of animation." (Rebecca Varley-Winter, The Goose, Vol. 14 (2), February, 2016)
