Here is what people are saying about the The Clowns of God
4 Star Rating  "How do you announce the end of the world?"2009-08-14
- Reviewed By resqgeek
After receiving a vision of the End of the World and a commission to announce that it is imminent, Pope Gregory XVII is forced to abdicate. Is his vision a symptom of insanity, or is he a new prophet, proclaiming the End of Creation? If his vision is true, how does he disseminate his message, and how will the world react to it?

Written during a period of escalating tensions during the Cold War, the impending doom of the world, as described here, no longer seems to be such a threat. However, this book explores themes of faith that are relevant, even if the End isn't imminent. Morris West clearly is a proponent of compassionate Christianity, where the fallibility of man is acknowledged, and forgiveness is the defining characteristic. As world tensions escalate towards the ultimate conflict, the characters struggle to spread a message of hope and faith in a environment that is bereft of both. The final pages provide a surprising climax that touches at the very core of faith.
 
5 Star Rating  "prophesy"2009-08-13
- Reviewed By User: AVSOTOPU94SHQ
More than a review it's a commentary of how I felt when I read The Clowns of God. I felt like it was a prophesy. Knowing it was written in 1981 it depicts what is actually happenning in the world today, of course always keeping in mind it is a work of fiction. I had read before (when originally published) most of the works of Morris West (even this one) but maybe in the 80's I was too young to appreciate it. Now I really enjoyed it and recommended it for reading in our Book Club and everyone was similarly impressed.
 
5 Star Rating  "A Great Story...Even Years Later"2009-01-06
- Reviewed By frmike_and_buddy
The "Editorial Review" above is, I believe, one of the most arrogant and insulting I have yet read. Quite to the contrary, I find this book to be one of Morris West's best efforts. As is usually the case with a book by West, this is one of those that has your interest so peaked, that you hate to put the book down--and catch yourself saying "I'll just read one more chapter..."

Interestingly, this book seems almost MORE believable today than when it was written. The intrigue, suspense, character development, and yes; PLOT all work together to make this a "great read."

I first read this book when it was newly released, and honestly--in some way--it has remained with me; in my thoughts and memories--ever since.

Don't be "pushed away" by the "Editorial Review." Buy it, read it yourself, and enjoy a good book by an always great writer.

Dear Morris West,
I cannot tell which side of the divide you come from, but the Clowns of God provides an uncanny and practical aspects of the battle between the Truth and Fables.

4 Star Rating  "Aren't we all clowns?"2007-10-20
- Reviewed By User: A3FIPUDZ9PCER9
I read this book in the mid-80's and want to read it again, but I cannot find my old copy. So I came online to order another and read some reviews.

I have decided to write this review from memory, before I re-read the book, for the simple reason that it had a lasting impression on me. That impression may change, when I re-read, but I want to record it:

Over the years and up to the very present, this book has come to mind at the oddest moments. Often, I've just seen a person who, in some measure, shares my faith, but whom I initially view as unimpressive. This book comes to memory and I think about the maimed, the lame, the halt in West's book--the "clowns" of God that proved to be faithful servants. In those moments, I feel as if I've been caught in unworthy thoughts. Indeed, I have been.

The bottom line, for me, is that we are all, in some way, to someone, "clowns." And it's best that I remember that and just continue to serve as I am able to understand my mission.

 
5 Star Rating  "Seeing The End As A New Beginning"2006-07-15
- Reviewed By User: A1FHFEWAMHIA1Q
After largely writing about a large tribe (Roman Catholicism) West turns his attention toward a future writ small: bands of survivors united in remote isolation after apocalyptic terror. A modern "Joan of Arc" story interwoven with mideast terror, physical infirmity, and the power of redemptive grace. One of Morris West's finest books: a triumph of realism amidst recovery.
