Il Vangelo secondo il Figlio

Norman Mailer was known for his complex characters and social commentary. I wonder how his personal views shaped this reinterpretation of the Gospel.

The choice to retell the Gospel from a particular point of view made me think about how perspective alters understanding. Was this a deliberate way to invite reflection or controversy?

Blending religious scripture with fiction is bold—I'm curious whether Mailer aimed to challenge readers' beliefs or spark deeper thought about faith and history.
