"Tawhidi's questions are often epigrammatic essays; they assert the limits of human reason and dwell on man's 'deficiencies, ' while evincing a Johnsonian keenness towards observing the contradictions of the human character, the fortunes of life and the spirit of the age. . . . There was no better recorder of his distempered century than Tawhidi; but there was also no other thinker of his time whose disillusioned and restless spirit is more modern, or whose character comes across more strongly in his writings."– "Times Literary Supplement"
