Anne Rice's second book in her hugely ambitious and courageous life of Christ begins during his last winter before his baptism in the Jordan and concludes with the miracle at Cana. It is a novel in which we see Jesus--he is called Yeshua bar Joseph--during a winter of no rain, endless dust, and talk of trouble in Judea. Legends of a Virgin birth have long surrounded Yeshua, yet for decades he has lived as one among many who come to the synagogue on the Sabbath. All who know and love him find themselves waiting for some sign of the path he will eventually take. And at last we see him emerge from his baptism to confront his destiny--and the Devil. We see what happens when he takes the water of six great limestone jars, transforms it into cool red wine, is recognized as the anointed one, and urged to call all Israel to take up arms against Rome and follow him as the prophets have foretold. As with Out of Egypt, the opening novel, The road to Cana is based on the Gospels and on the most respected New Testament scholarship. The book's power derives from the profound feeling its author brings to the writing and the way in which she summons up the presence of Jesus.… (plus d'informations)

I thought this was a good, respectful retelling of Christ's early years. It expanded on the material in the New Testament in a believable, engaging way. Very good. ( )

El segundo libro de esta ambiciosa y profusamente documentada vida de Cristo comienza en el último invierno de los años desconocidos, culmina en los cuarenta días y cuarenta noches que pasa en el desierto y concluye con un milagro. Herodes Antipas rige en Galilea, Poncio Pilatos es el nuevo gobernador romano de Judea y el Imperio Romano controla el mundo. Tras un invernó sin lluvia, el polvo y los disturbios se apoderan de las calles de Judea. Jesús habita en el oscuro pueblo de Nazaret junto a su unida familia judía. Su vida tranquila contrasta con unos tiempos turbulentos en los que los bandidos bajan de las colinas para aterrorizar a las mujeres y el fanatismo local se enardece súbitamente.

The Road to Cana was not quite as enjoyable as Out of Egypt, at least not at first. The first 2/3 of the book felt slow, even meandering. The last 1/3 was very fast paced, almost too quick.

Like the first book, it's a bit of a stretch to get one's head inside the human head of the Son of God, though it's a bit easier having Him be an adult, rather than a child. But the author does an admirable job of trying to get some sort of a clue of the reality of the situation. As in the first book, she also brings the land and culture to life. Altogether an interesting read. Recommended. ( )

Los rumores en relación al milagro de la Anunciación a la Virgen María y el nacimiento de Jesucristo rodeado de valiosas ofrendas de los Reyes Magos, circulan como una leyenda frecuentemente comentada en Nazareth. Jeshua bar Joseph (Jesucristo) es apodado por muchos como El no pecador, sin embargo nadie puede confirmar que posea un don especial. Requerido por muchos, e incluso por su propia madre, para contraer matrimonio con la joven y bella Avigail, Jesucristo habrá de enfrentarse a duras insinuaciones y a terribles e inesperados conflictos ante su negativa a casarse. Tendrán que pasar varios meses hasta que su primo Juan el Bautista le bautice en el río Jordán y descubra de este modo a todos los pueblos que Él es El Elegido, El Salvador. Jesucristo y su pueblo deberán enfrentarse a los insultos de Poncio Pilato hacia su religión; en la soledad tendrá que luchar contra las tentaciones que le ofrece el mismo Diablo y, como en la realidad histórica, se rodeará de sus discípulos para propagar la palabra de Dios. Todo ello aliñado con varios de los más conocidos momentos históricos de la Biblia, dibujados ficticiamente: niños injustamente apedreados hasta la muerte, la transformación de piedras en panes, de agua en vino durante la esperada boda de Avigail, la expulsión de los siete demonios del cuerpo de Maria Magdalena, etc.
