'Dysers explores the concept of repetition, insightfully examining Lang's use of textual quotation, and his practice of musical borrowing. She argues that while repetition is commonly treated as reiteration of a previously explored idea, this is too reductive. She treats it more as radical instability. [...] The book is indebted to music theory, psychology and post-structuralist philosophy, and Dysers has engaged in extended interviews with the composer.' -- Andy Hamilton, The Wire
