Title : Marie - Marek Halter - book

Summary :

After The Bible in the feminine , Marek Halter's new challenge.

"Is there a person in the world who does not know the name of Mary, mother of Jesus, the one who brought about the greatest spiritual upheaval since the birth of monotheism? Yet, what the Gospels tell us about her is summed up in a few elliptical and mysterious verses.
During the years it took to write this novel, which paints a portrait of "my Mary," I tried to imagine who this Miriam of Nazareth could have been, born in Galilee in the chaotic kingdom of Israel, facing Roman occupation.
What ties did she have with the resistance and one of its most popular leaders, Barabbas? What was her relationship with the Essenes of Damascus, the sect of therapists? And with her distant cousin John the Baptist? Born in Poland, where the cult of Mary dominates the Catholic Church, I have been fascinated since my childhood by the destiny of this young Jewish woman at the origin of Christianity. One day I had to go looking for her. Today, I would like to share this fascinating story with you.
