"We lost this brave genius last year, and the books he gifted us while he lived are so wonderfully strange and honest and beautiful, I can't believe he even existed. He was more than a poet or performance artist—Baumer’s life itself was a work of art. He was truly radical, and the most openhearted, un-jaded human I've ever met."

"Imagine being an 18-year-old girl, on holiday with two radical poets, and coming up with an idea for a Gothic horror novel which also more or less invents the genre of science fiction, which then goes on to become such a huge and enduring success, constantly open to reinterpretation and reimagining, that it still seems vivid and alive two hundred years later."

"I can’t overrate the radical beauty and revolutionary vision of these portraits. He was the first to focus on the psycho-idolatrous fans in the crowds at premieres, instead of the celebrities. Weegee the man, in words and image, is like a ham-handed rube and a carnival barker; it’s like watching an oaf sit down to play a perfect, mordant Bach chorale. What can I say?"
