Michel Tournier (Gascoigne book)

Michel Tournier is a 1996 book by David Gascoigne, published by Berg Publishers.

The book primarily talks about the author's works of fiction, whilst non-fiction works are occasionally referred to within texts to explain the fiction works.[1]

According to Sheila Bell of the University of Kent, the book can appeal to both academics and non-academics, and therefore of the Tournier-related works she reviewed, this would have the highest number of prospective readers.[1]

David Platten of the University of Leeds wrote that this book has a distant perspective and results in "a more wide-ranging, less fanatical" point of view; according to Platten the book is an "attempt to construct a more substantial Tournier Weltanschauung."[2]
