"Lupton’s book is. . . a thoroughly necessary guide"
"Her prose is refreshingly jargon-free . . .Lupton draws thematic connections between isolated moments in Marker’s films with an ease born of familiarity, and her film analyses are lucid and interesting . . . the first complete English-language survey of Marker’s work is an invaluable reference."
"This is the first study of him in English to reveal the full scope of a luminous career . . . Lupton steers through the maze of Marker’s world with admirable clear-headedness and isn’t afraid to point out when he might fall short of greatness. . . . satisfyingly complex."
"A highly recommended Chris Marker primer and a much-welcome addition to the growing debate and interest around his work outside of France."
