Philip Pullman
This is the story of two brothers. One is impassioned and one reserved. One is destined to go down in history and the other to be forgotten.
In Philip Pullman's hands, this sacred tale is reborn as one of the most enchanting, thrilling and visionary stories of recent years.

Kritikerstimmen
"A supreme storyteller . . . Pullman has done the story a service by reminding us of its extraordinary power to provoke and disturb." (Salley Vickers)
"Striking and suggestive." (Boyd Tonkin)
"Beautifully written, humane, memorable and resonant." (Philip Hensher)
"A fierce and beautiful book which . . . will move even those who disagree with it . . . Though he wears his scholarship lightly as befits a master storyteller, there is no doubt in my mind that Pullman has a complete grasp of the intricacies of the quest for the historical Jesus." (Richard Holloway)
"Beautifully effective . . . Pullman's retelling of the central story in western civilisation provides a brilliant new interpretation that is also a thought-provoking reflection on the process of how stories come into existence and accrue their meanings." (Nick Rennison)
"It is a small gem or, given its explosive story and its exquisite artistry, a hand grenade made by Fabergé." (Brian Appleyard)
"The Gospel according to Pullman, precisely because it is so skilfully constructed, will prompt many readers to turn once more to consider whether or not they should accept the apparently bizarre testimony of the early Christian witnesses." (A.N Wilson)
"Pullman's rebel scripture [is] striking and suggestive . . . Sets a rhetorical feast before critics of ecclesiastical pomp and pride. When this Jesus prays, prior to his betrayal in the garden of Gethsemane, he delivers a Dawkins-esque soliloquy. Not only does the anarchic prophet predict a future priesthood of hypocrites and persecutors who will "torture and kill" heretics and infidels. He even spots child-abuse scandals to come." (Boyd Tonkin)
"Provokingly bold" (Boyd Tonkin)
"Pullman has an extraordinary imagination . . .[and] there are moments of heart-rending personal drama."
"A writer of great skill and feeling." (Adam Gopnik)
"The charm of this book lies in its seriousness about the story it tells, and about its being a story."
"Profoundly moving and engrossing."
"Told in simple, unadorned prose, The Good Man Jesus and the Scoundrel Christ provides a brilliant new interpretation that is also a thought-provoking reflection on the process of how stories accrue their meanings." (Nick Rennison)
"Pullman nimbly presents this as a contrast between historical veracity and the bon mot that can take root in the popular imagination. He implies that Christ's true achievement was to put a spin on Jesus's story, adding elements of mystery and poetry to an otherwise prosaic tale." (James Urquhart)
"The most moving section is a marvelous monologue in which Jesus, alone in the Garden of Gethsemane, realises that there is no God, only the wonders of the material world." (Brandon Robshaw)
