One of the most influential intellectuals of our time.
Observer
John Berger teaches us how to think, how to feel how to stare at things until we see what we thought wasn't there. But above all, he teaches us how to love in the face of adversity. He is a master.
Arundhati Roy
Berger is a writer one demands to know more about . an intriguing and powerful mind and talent.
New York Times
Essential ... reminds us that all good writing comes only from good (that is, patient, attentive, loving) looking.
- Andrew Marr,, New Statesman
Essential reading not just for our political moment but outside it. He was a monument, a world of his own; at the same time, his thinking and his art-which are the same thing-address themselves at once to the past, the present, and the future
N+1
I also loved Landscapes, a posthumous anthology of John Berger's essays, stories and poems about art.
