Industry Reviews
"...[D]ivertingly instructive and imparts gratifying dimension to the beginnings of what later became known as Christianity. Most important, it makes of Jesus a still-living literary presence."
Lehmann-Haupt
"Because of [Cahill's] self-imposed restriction, a vast and often surreal landscape is always held in check by its simple, sturdy frame, making DESIRE OF THE EVERLASTING HILLS, against all probability, a stunning success...."
