In The Brook Kerith, Christ does not die on the cross. Rather, he is nursed back to health and travels to India in search of wisdom. Hailed as a “remarkable achievement in fiction” by the New York Times—but highly controversial when published—this novel paints a vivid portrait of the Holy Land in the days of Christ.
About the author
George Augustus Moore (1852-1933) was a pioneering modern Irish writer. He had to fight against censorship early in his career. Despite the powerful forces arrayed against him, Moore succeeded in establishing realism as a legitimate literary mode. His best-known novels include A Mummer’s Wife (1885) and Esther Waters (1894).
