The Last Temptation of Christ
Touchstone Publishing | ISBN: 068485256X | PDF | 1.5 MB | 373 pages | translated from Greek By P.A. Bien
A monumental fictional reinterpretation of the Gospels by one of the giants of modern literature. It follows the life of Jesus Christ from his perspective. The central thesis of the book is that Jesus, while free from sin, was still subject to every form of temptation that humans face, including fear, doubt, depression, reluctance, and lust. Kazantzakis argues in the novel's preface that by facing and conquering all of man's weaknesses, Jesus struggled to do God's will, without ever giving in to the temptations of the flesh.
The novel is ended with A Note on the Author and His Use of Language by the translator.
