The Kingdom Emmanuel Carrere, John Lambert Hardcover
The sensational international bestseller: an epic novel telling the story of Christianity as it has never been told beforeCorinth, ancient Greece, two thousand years ago. Like a contagion, the story will spread over the city, the country and, eventually, the world. An itinerant preacher, poor, wracked by illness, tells the story of a prophet who was crucified in Judea, who came back from the dead, and whose return is a sign of something enormous.
In doing so Carrere, once himself a fervent believer, questions his own faith, asks why we believe in resurrection, and what it means. Emmanuel Carrere's astonishing historical epic tells the story of the mysterious beginnings of Christianity, bringing to life a distant, primeval past of strange sects, apocalyptic beliefs and political turmoil. The Kingdom is his masterpiece.
