Evil Gods and Reckless Saviours

Meer over het boek

Late twentieth-century novels about Jesus reimagine his character and story, offering fresh interpretations that challenge traditional Gospel narratives. Authors like Norman Mailer, Jose Saramago, and Michele Roberts present inversive revisions that not only depict Jesus in new ways but also critique the broader implications of Christian history. These works reflect a transformative approach to biblical storytelling, inviting readers to reconsider established beliefs and the impact of Christianity on culture and society.
