Praise for The Twelve Lives of Alfred Hitchcock
A New York Times Editors' Choice
"A provocative new way of thinking about biography. . . . The radial structure vibrates, like Hitchcock's best films, with intuition and mystery."
- Parul Sehgal, New York Times
"The great strength of The Twelve Lives is that a reader comes away from it with a vivid sense of how Hitchcock ignited screen masterpieces with the fires of his inner discord and contradictions."
- Alexander Kafka, Washington Post
"Full of such sharp observations, offering a Hitchcock whose art endures alongside-and in some ways depends upon-his insecurities and mistakes."
- Farran Smith Nehme, Wall Street Journal
"White's book is a perceptive, plainspoken, and vigorous portrait of an exceedingly strange, complicated, and perhaps deeply wounded man."
- John Banville, The New Republic
"Thoughtful and nuanced. . . . Grasps Hitchcock's enduring hold on our aspirations and our fears."
- Glenn Frankel, Washington Post
"Perceptive and gracefully written, The Twelve Lives of Alfred Hitchcock is a bracing study of the master of suspense. . . . It is a rare book that could pleasurably be twice as long."
- The Economist
"Masterly."
- The Times [UK]
