One can only welcome this substantial addition to the slender corpus of Cohen studies-- David L. Parris Modern Language Review 2006 An overdue addition to French and Jewish Studies and would work well in courses that deal with Jewish identity, antisemitism and the Holocaust in France, and multicultural literature, as well as performance studies, citizenship, and writing from 'the closet.' -- Denis M. Provencher Interdisciplinary Journal of Jewish Studies 2006 Dissonant Voices represents a solid, well-researched first monograph in American Cohen studies. -- Molly Robinson Kelly French Studies 2007
