“This impressively wide-ranging study offers both a fresh interpretation of well-trodden texts and vibrant readings of lesser-known works. … This book is bursting with insights and, as if to illustrate how … helpful QR codes enable the reader-listener to hear the sounds under discussion. This important book offers a reassessment of how we understand the sounds of drama and the sounds of the travel narrative, begging us to reassess global sounds and their impact upon the body.” (Rachel Willie, Archiv für das Studium der neueren Sprachen und Literaturen, Vol. 174 (259), 2022)

“In her exciting and innovative book, Wood theorizes the phenomenology of ‘sounding’ otherness both in early modern drama and travel encounters, providing an expansive model for interdisciplinary engagement across performance communities. Particularly powerful is her development of the notion of ‘sounding,’ with sections focused on specific kinds of instruments and how they would have vibrated, literallyand figuratively, in different contexts. … More expansively, Wood provides a model for how the field might move forward by bringing Indigenous Studies and Premodern Critical Race Studies into fruitful dialogue.” (MRDS, Medieval and Renaissance Drama Society, 2021)
