«Talking Heads places Alan Bennett in the highest tier of English dramatic writers»
New York Times
«His finest achievement - indeed masterpiece wouldn't be too strong a word»
The Daily Telegraph
«Bennett's genius is his ability to satirize humanely. [His] prose is like stained glass: if you stare at it, you see things you missed»
New York Times Book Review
«It's hardly a revelation to say that Alan Bennett has proved himself a master of the modern dramatic monologue... One of the finest dramatic achievements of the past few decades.»
