Review:

" 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)
