"...[S]uggests some aspects of existentialist thought as Rachel must choose between the nausea of bad faith and the anguish and despair of freedom. Laurence is also existential throughout her work in Sartre's primary sense in that her focus is on man's process of becoming, a process which reveals to him his essence or spirit. However, in distinction to existentialist thought and in accordance with the conventions of Christian believe, man discovers a preexisting spirit."
Sandra Djwa, Journal of Canadian Fiction, 1972
Review:"In A JEST OF GOD, seen as formally failed by some nineteenth-century reviewers, Margaret Laurence assays a responsive vocal style, the voice in the ear pursuing Rachel's mind even into the deep places where the most superior fiction (Joyce, Beckett, etc.) comes from. Instead of doggedly getting on with the 'story', the draggiest part of a book, the writing begins in its place and expands outward from the keystone province."
George Bowering, Canadian Literature, Fall 1971
