An illuminating long take of the creative work of one of the most enigmatic and thought-provoking filmmakers of the twentieth century. The book sets high standards not only for thinking about Tarkovsky, but for writing about cinema as such. By combining a reflection on the cinematic and the philosophical, this book transforms the boundaries of both.' - Dragan KujundA ic, Professor of Film and Media Studies and Slavic Studies, University of Florida; 'Before this book, Tarkovsky's preoccupation with "sculpting in time" had become a critical cliche. Here Skakov brings it alive again, offering a fresh, theoretically-informed and entirely original approach. He reveals Tarkovsky's work as creating "textural" temporality, offers fresh readings of the key films, and a compelling theoretical framework.' - Emma Widdis, Head of Department of Slavonic Studies, Cambridge University
