Recenzii

“Emma Creedon’s Sam Shepard and the Aesthetics of Performance stands as a unique and important contribution to the vast scholarly material centered upon ‘the enfant terrible cowboy poet of the American stage’ … . this book serves as a notable contribution to works centered on Shepard while also plowing new terrain, revealing the promise of utilizing Surrealism to better elucidate theatre.” (Shannon Blake Skelton, Comparative Drama, Vol. 51 (3), 2017)
“If your interests are in how the output of an immensely talented and noted playwright reflects and also shapes the geist of his age, then welcome to Emma Creedon’s analysis. … Sam Shepard and The Aesthetics of Performance is an easy read. … Emma Creedon’s intensely researched work will prove enormously stimulating and thought-enhancing if one takes the time to consider the movement of a writer within streams of cultural influences.” (Hubert O'Hearn, sandiegobookreview.com, January, 2016)
