Testament
Nino Ricci
Testament is a bold work of historical fiction. Set in a remote corner of the Roman Empire at a moment of political unrest and spiritual uncertainty, it retells the life of a holy man of enormous charisma who alters the course of human history. Grounded in extensive research, Testament vividly recreates first-century Palestine in elegant but accessible prose to explore the story of the man we know as Jesus. Ricci offers the story of Yeshua (Jesus) through the eyes and testimony of four fictional followers, reminiscent of yet utterly different from the Gospels, giving fresh perspective and a captivating narrative to an age-old story.
