Attingendo sia dall'Antico sia dal Nuovo Testamento e concentrandosi sulla prima parte della esistenza di Gesù, Josè Saramago, con spirito volutamente dissacratorio, modifica gli eventi tramandati dai vangeli canonici, senza rispettarne la cronologia.

Based on the book of Acts this is the story of the Apostle Paul's third journey. Told through the eyes of Paul's companion Timothy this is the tale of the journey to Ephesus and Paul's time in the city.

Their stories, completed in the first century, are eyewitness accounts of Jesus interacting with, ministering to, and helping people.

After first sharing King Josiah with my friends as a manuscript, they were at the same time impressed and amazed, as several asked me how I was able to write such an intriguing and brilliant novel. The truth is that aside from my knowledge of Josiah as a historical figure, and my willingness to write, I can take very little credit for the story itself as it was not so much a work of my imagination but flowed out from a much deeper place within.

Jesus at 29: Exemplary Virtues of an Ordinary Man will take you to a simpler time when Jesus was allowed to be just a good man, good father, good son, good boss, and a good teacher.
