A powerful tale inspired by the biblical Raising of Lazarus.'A POIGNANT, UNSETTLING PERSPECTIVE ON THE MOST FAMILIAR STORY IN WESTERN CIVILISATION.' The Times'A VERY HUMAN TALE OF RIVALRY, BETRAYAL, POWER-GRABBING AND SACRIFICE.' The ObserverA SUNDAY TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR | NUMBER 1 BESTSELLER IN PORTUGAL.What if your beloved friend brings you back from the dead, and you see nothing of any afterlife? And what if that friend is the Jewish mystic Yeshua, who will come to be known as Jesus? His miracles are stirring the authorities in Jerusalem, and Lazarus finds himself scrambling after his childhood companion during Passion Week, the turbulent final chapter in Yeshua's life. Meanwhile Lazarus struggles to return to his work and family, feeling a great sense of fragility and lost identity since his return to the living world. He can't help but wonder if he was resurrected to save Yeshua in his time of dire need…Richard Zimler's impeccably researched novel draws you into to Roman-controlled Jerusalem, the Jewish communities within it and the permeating Greek cultural influences. A cast of biblical figures, from Mary and Joseph to Mary Magdalene, are restored to their Jewish roots. Jesus is presented as a mystic within the practises and traditions of ancient Judaism. Zimler brings us a fascinating and highly moving read.
