In The Gospel According to the Son, Mailer reimagines, as no other modern author has, the key character of Western history. Here is Jesus Christ's story in his own words: the discovery of his divinity and the painful, powerful journey to accepting and expressing it, as if I were a man enclosing another man within.

Unlike just about every American writer since Henry James, Mailer has managed to grow and become richer in wisdom with each new book.--Chicago Tribune Mailer is a master of his craft. His language carries you through the story like a leaf on a stream.--The Cincinnati Post From the Hardcover edition.…
