The Man Who Died by D H Lawrence. Originally published in 1929
The Man Who Died eBook D H Lawrence
A very short book that is more of a novela. As historians often say that students of American history "must get right with Lincoln," so to must participants in Western culture "get right with Jesus." As a man, little is known of Jesus. Of the 1800 or so sayings attributed to Jesus in the Bible, biblical scholars have whittled that number down to less than 100 sayings that they believe to actually be his. As such, the man is cloaked almost completely in the legend that has been built on his name. This book explores that moment when those two identities crossed--Jesus's resurrection from the dead. Tackled in Lawrence's distinctive style, "The Man Who Died" is far more provocative than works such as Mailer's "The Gospel According to the Sun" and is reminiscent of Scorsese's "The Last Temptation of Christ." It confronts the received biblical narrative and shatters the narrow existential walls that limit the spiritual exploration that Jesus's life story demands.It is not just a must read, it is a must own. You will want to go back to this often, because it's never the same book twice.

The Man Who Died eBook D H Lawrence Reviews
This is an excellent book, offered at an excellent price, and received quickly in rather excellent condition. I'm looking forward to using this excellent service again soon! Thank you, Paul
A lovely short story from one of my favorite writers. The language is beautiful. The story is an intriguing take on Jesus. Highly recommend.
I am a layman when it comes to English literature and especially when it comes to Christianity, so I have neither belief systems within me to mar my experience of this book - my first D.H. Lawrence read. What a beautiful and intriguing read; it left me wishing to have known the man, who, in my very humble opinion, might quite possibly be one of the few awakened souls.
book was in great shape.
Jesus,after surviving his passion,meet a roman lady living in a temple offered to Isis in Search in Egypt.
Both tries to transcend the worldly subjects at the same time that the very human affection grows between them.
It is a great story told in a haunting way, to be re-read and meditated upon. Shows the value and strength of life and unselfish love.
The book describes what it feels like to come alive after being dead. It is frightening but fascinating.
