A Painter of our Time Reviews

Praise for From A to X John Berger has found a voice perfectly fitted to express an emotional sincerity quite rare in fiction at the momentA Ursula le Guin, Guardian This is a book of controlled rage sculpted with tools of tenderness and a searing political vision.A Arundhati Roy on From A to X One of the most tender and poignant books I have read for many years. Its power rests in its economy of means, its account of enduring love surviving oppression.A Harold Pinter The record of one restless, committed, brilliant consciousness; a late showcase of a mind and sensibility of astonishing range and depth.A Melissa Benn, Independent
