"Moving with ease across historical contextualization, theoretical inquiry, and the close reading of a broad corpus of films and other cultural objects, Jean Ma both sheds new light on canonical texts and takes on urgent contemporary debates pertaining to corporeality, slowness, attention, and cinematic relocation. A true pleasure to read."--Erika Balsom, author of After Uniqueness: A History of Film and Video Art in Circulation "At the Edges of Sleep is an exceptionally strong piece of scholarship. It is intellectually ambitious, erudite across a number of fields, poetically written yet lucid, and both historically informed and deeply attuned to our own moment."--Karen Redrobe, author of Crash: Cinema and the Politics of Speed and Stasis "Wow. This book is a unique sensational performance as Jean Ma unpacks the aesthetic and possibilities for sleep as a critical practice in contemporary moving image culture. It's downright groundbreaking in its far-ranging and far-reaching insights."--Dana Polan, Cinema Studies, New York University
