Jesus, the Son of Man

This is portrayal of Christ is through the eyes of His contemporaries, men and women who knew him as an enemy, friend or teacher. These people including Mary Magdalen, Simon Peter, Pontius Pilate and Barabbas are brought to life against the social, political and religious realities of Palestine and Rome at that period. Gibran has also written "The Madman", "The Prophet" and "A Tear and a Smile".
