Carcanet Press
Quote of the Day
...where the usual publisher's list might be like the contents of a bookshop, Carcanet's was like the contents of a private library. More than that, over the years, the Carcanet list has grown without any dilution of seriousness, so that looking at it now is like being invited to read the contents of a poet's library.

Review of I Found it at the Movies - EMPIRE, May 2011

Now 78, British critic Philip French has spent most of his life writing about cinema for the BBC, The Times and The Observer. This book, its title a riposte to Pauline Kael, collates some of his chewiest think-places subjects ranging from Doris Day ('a professional virgin') to bombs in the movies.
