The Four Wise Men by Michel Tournier
There, this fourth wise man learns the recipe from a fellow prisoner, and learns of the existence and meaning of Jesus.
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
Born in 1924, Michel Tournier studied philosophy and then became a journalist and a writer. He is the author of several novels, including The Ogre, Friday, and Gemini, also available in paperback from Johns Hopkins.
