“Cornelia Rainer skillfully navigates between tradition and modernity in a formal sense.”

“In terms of content, Prospero’s process of self-discovery remains clearly central, the struggle for dominion over others and over oneself. In Rainer’s interpretation, this is a proclamation of the power, violence, and authority of thoughts to create worlds: ‘We are made of the stuff that dreams are made of, and our life is encompassed within a sleep.'”
