Trade Review
"This transporting collection seizes the key paradox of Isabelle Huppert's performance style so frank, yet so enigmatic as the launchpad for a series of inspired, surprising, persuasive analyses of her work. These essays also furnish fresh, rewarding lenses on affect and opacity, whiteness and nation, comedy and irony, motherhood and melodrama." -Nick Davis, Northwestern University
