The Secret Gospel of Mary Magdalene
In the parched soil of Provence, a fifth gospel has been Mary Magdalene's account of Jesus' teachings and her vital relationship with him...
It is a book of revelation, for it unveils a new Christianity, one that embraces the female equally with the male and acknowledges and celebrates the spirituality of women. A passionate story of love and search, of separation and rebirth, The Secret Gospel imagines an alternative history for the much maligned Mary Magdalene, where she runs away from her family but returns to be captivated, both emotionally and theologically, by Jesus.
Michele Roberts' novel offers a brilliant and moving vision of Jesus that is also startlingly modern in its conclusions.
