À propos de cet audio
The New York Times best-selling author of Elizabeth I brilliantly reimagines the story of the most mysterious woman in the Bible.
Was Mary Magdalene a prostitute, a female divinity figure, a church leader, or all of those? Biblical references to her are tantalizingly brief, but we do know that she was the first person to whom the risen Christ appeared - and the one commissioned to tell others the good news, earning her the ancient honorific "Apostle to the Apostles". Today, Mary continues to spark controversy, curiosity, and veneration. In a vivid re-creation of Mary Magdalene's life story, Margaret George convincingly captures this renowned woman's voice as she moves from girlhood to womanhood, becomes part of the circle of disciples, and comes to grips with the divine. Grounded in biblical scholarship and secular research, this fascinating historical novel is also, ultimately, "the diary of a soul".

This was such an engrossing story
I am an atheist, I do not believe in any religion or god figure however, I loved this tale - It provided a lot of information about the times and culture as well as the ways that religious protocol led the lives of all people then. Ms GEORGE did a magnificent job of weaving together the known facts surrounding the historical figures (including Jesus of Galilee) along with the details from gospels and other stories. This was a story that I could believe happening (outside of the mystical aspects involving ‘god’) and I became very invested in Mary and her life... a fabulous novel and exactly the kind of epic tale I have come to expect from Margaret George: Heartily recommend!!
