Summary: Hard to Read
Comment: This book is very hard to read. I don't mean the subject matter - that is dense and complicated, but I think well explained. In any case, anyone reading this book is going to be highly motivated to learn from it and willing to work at understanding the material. What I found insurmountably difficult, though, is the appallingly small, faint, irregular print (it looks like it was reproduced on a 1970's Xerox copier) and the HORRIBLE illustrations. Every time I pick up this book - and my magnifying glass - I know I am in for a difficult difficult time. Are there any plans for a nice clear reprint? I would definitely be interested in getting one.

Summary: Linklater's method frees the voice to create catharthis.
Comment: I am absolutely amazed with the progress I have made this semester in my Stage Voice class which utilizes the Linklater method. When I began her method two months ago, I had problems with articulation, projection, and breathing. In addition to that, my muscles in my throat had atrophied to the point that I was a AltoII in vocal range. However, with persistent work with her method, my vocal range is between SopranoII and AltoII, and I can project and articulate my words with no problem. Indeed, I am currently in a mainstage production at my school that demands I use a West Indies accent. Because I have learned to "free the voice" my performances have literally knocked my audience dead. People just can't believe the change! Run, don't walk to buy this book.

Summary: Free the mind, body and soul!
Comment: Reading this book has helped me break away from the bad habits used in everyday speech in our society. It frees the body and soul along with the voice. The only thing better than reading this book and using the Linklater Technique is having Kristen teach you the technique herself. I was lucky enough to have that experience years after I bought the book.
