Items related to The Secret Gospel of Mary Magdalene
In the parched soil of Provence, a fifth gospel has been discovered, Mary Magdalene's account of Jesus' teaching and her relationship with him.
It is a book of revelation, for it unveils a new Christianity, one which embraces the female equally with the male and acknowledges and celebrates women's spirituality. 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.
The Secret Gospel of Mary Magdalene is a brilliant and moving vision of Christianity that is also startlingly modern in its conclusions.

"Bold and moving" (Guardian)
"An assured tour de force of passion...the power with which it reclaims spiritual and sexual strength for women cannot be ignored" (Time Out)
"By her rich use of symbols and metaphor she transforms feminist cliché into something alive and moving" (Times Literary Supplement)
"A complex and highly original novel" (Sunday Times)
