"""Leave it to Murray Pomerance, one of the most singular voices in film studies, to reintroduce us to Hitchcock’s work in all its infinite mystery, retrieving it from the frameworks of theory and interpretation that have too often reduced it to convenient clichés. This searching, provocative, and revelatory text is a lesson in necessarily idiosyncratic attention. No one quite savors luminous and sonorous details like the author of this book—except for Hitchcock himself, whose sensibility finds itself mirrored and refracted in Pomerance's elegant prose."" — Rick Warner, author of The Rebirth of Suspense: Slowness and Atmosphere in Cinema"
