»More often than not you find single authors doing research on the life and work of a forgotten personality. They check sources for facts that reach beyond the mere biographical data. Brilliantly successful in this art is Swiss theatermaker Gilbert Holzgang.« (Maria Brosowsky, taz Nord, January 17, 2024)

»The vibrant core of this book form the constant ups and downs of Scheyer’s relation to her quartet. She was not successful as agent but nevertheless convinced of her mission’s importance.« (Andreas Platthaus, FAZ-online, December 2, 2023)

»An intensive good read about an eventful time and an exciting life. A must-read.« (Andreas Berger, Braunschweiger Zeitung, December 9, 2023)
