"A facsimile of Carson’s own personal playbook, “H of H” is a performance of thought, one that speaks not only to the heroic past but to the tragic present."
Casey Cep - The New Yorker
"Carson’s visual sense for the dramatic is put to good use in a play that bends towards irony and philosophical meandering. The muted colors?broken up by the intrusion of bright red or blue?are used effectively throughout, adding emotional overtones to large expanses of silence and negative space, to violence happening offstage."
Cal Paule - Arkansas International
"An evocative, artful reimagining of the madness of an ancient hero."
Kirkus
"Anne Carson’s shape-shifting powers are epic."
Elissa Schappell - Vanity Fair
"Carson applies the habits of classical scholarship, the linguistic rigour, the relentless search for evidence, the jigsaw approach to scattered facts, to the trivia of contemporary private life."
Sam Anderson - New York Magazine
"She is one of the few writers writing in English that I would read anything she wrote."
Susan Sontag
"Fans of Anne Carson, rejoice! From the iconic poet who penned Autobiography of Red comes a new retelling....Caron’s depth of knowledge about Greek mythology coupled with her poetic sensibility and illustrations is sure to breathe new life into this oft-told story."
