Powerful and moving readings, stories and poems for Easter. The
accounts of scapegoating, of power and violence and hope found in
the gospels will always be current and significant. The story of
Jesus Christ and of those who surrounded him remains a defining
narrative of our time. Using artistic and theological licence,
Rachel Mann writes with the voices of the characters involved in
the biblical accounts of passion and resurrection. Unafraid to
explore the darkest aspects evoked by these events, she says: 'The
intention of both the more humorous and the visceral stories is to
play with abiding themes of death and new life in ways which - in
church contexts at least - break unusual ground. Some readers may
find some of the language crude and offensive. It is not my
intention to offend or outrage, but - to indicate that there are
places and experiences where blasphemy is prayer and prayer is
blasphemy.'
