The Gospel of Satan

In a series near-misadventures unfolding across the ancient Levant, the Devil, Jesus and his thirteen disciples meet with lions, lepers, prophets, prostitutes and God himself as they struggle to free themselves from the strictures of duty and fate: Jesus chafes no less under the conventional, Pauline construction of his actions than the Devil under his ontological dependence on God. In pushing the other past personal boundaries, each arrives, finally, at a deeper iteration of himself ... whilst fulfilling his duty, all the same. Gospel is a road trip story, a buddy novel. Easy Rider meets the Gospels. Part picaresque, part polemic.
