The Magic Lantern is no conventional autobiography, more a scalding stream of consciousness from the pen of a licentious puritan. - New York Review of Books [Bergman] has found a way to show the soul's landscape.... Many gripping revelations. - New York Times Book Review Joan Tate's translation of this book has delicacy and true pitch.... The Magic Lantern is as personal and penetrating as a Bergman film, wry, shadowy, austere. - New Republic [Bergman] keeps returning to his past, reassessing it, distilling its meaning, offering it to his audiences in dazzling new shapes. - New York Times What Bergman does relate, particularly his tangled relationships with his parents, is not only illuminating but quite moving. No 'tell-all' book this one, but revealing in ways that much longer and allegedly 'franker' books are not. - Library Journal """Bergman's minute recall is essentially, astonishingly, visual.
