Recenzje

J.M. Coetzee's trilogy of Jesus novels is one of the more enigmatic achievements of contemporary world fiction. In a series of assured readings that are as generous to the reader as they are to the novels, Robert Pippin rises to the challenge, showing how Coetzee manages to be both disarming and philosophically profound.
