The Gospel According to Jesus Christ

The Gospel According to Jesus Christ

by Jose Saramago

  • LITERATURE
  • 1994
  • PAPER
  • 352 PAGES

A novel of the life of Jesus, by the Portugese Nobel Prize winner. Told from Jesus's point of view, with God and the Devil playing major characters, the book caused something of a sensation when it was first published in 1991. Despite its generally respectful tone, it ultimately paints Jesus as very human and unhappy with the future blood to be spilled in his name.  (ISR34, $15.00)
