Persona

June 28 – Persona, 1966

For its evident contemplation of a singular phenomenon of transfer of personality . . . [Persona] is rich in poetic intimations of subconscious longings and despairs, and it is likely to move one more deeply as poetry than as thought.
Bosley Crowther, New York Times, March 7, 1967
