'Thornton has a real gift for detailed, nuanced textual analyses. Shae also shows an impressive ability to draw upon a variety of critical and social theoriests, rangingb from Freud and Benjamin to Agamben and Butler, to add conceptual depth without diverting the argument in tangential or otherwise unproductive directions.'
- Nicholas Mason, Associate Professor of English, Brigham Young University, USA, New Books Online 19
