Review:
Book Description:
"The Four Wise Men struck me as a true masterpiece."
(Lewis Jones New Statesman)"A work of extraordinary clarity."
(Jonathan Baumbach New York Times Book Review)"There is a real touch of magic in this novel."
(The Atlantic)"This is a novel of high achievement. Tournier works to assert an apologia of Christianity and its underlying message of love, and he does so with finely paced arguing, well-balanced counterarguing and, most importantly, genuine intellectual energy... This may be more than a novel of high achievement, in fact; it may be the best work so far of a truly daring writer."
(America)"Tournier is an ambitious and profound writer."
(Washington Post)"This may be more than a novel of high achievement, in fact; it may be the best work so far of a truly daring writer."— America
