"The major strengths of How to Do Things with Affects [...] are the multidisciplinary exemplification of a very general schema and the refinement of what exactly is meant by the stylish phrase, 'to restore agency to form.' Scholars working to recuperate literature and art as suitable objects of inquiry in affect studies will find several essays here that bolster that effort. All in all, if something of a formalist turn is underway in affect theory, How to Do Things with Affects [...] is an enriching volume that can serve as an introduction to that turn or an abundant development of it.
