'Verhoeven’s is an informed and carefully constructed text that considers the needs of a readership spanning Campion’s fans, critics, students, scholars and industry members. Its four chapters successively discuss Campion's representation in the media, industry and academia, followed by a long interview between the filmmaker and author. This structure bears out Verhoeven's argument that there are many irreducible Campions at work. The weight of this argument is borne elegantly and effectively by prose that renders Verhoeven's terms of analysis clear and pithy' – Media International Australia
