註釋
A flawlessly presented tale that opens a window on human aspiration and folly, its revelations full of grit and glory. -- starred, Kirkus Reviews
A superbly crafted combination of historical and inspirational fiction that is genuinely unique. -- starred, Publishers Weekly
This is no simple retelling of an ancient story, but a modern and startling account of the birth and death of faith. In Crace's hands, Jesus is reconceived as Gally, a boy besotted with prayer and visions. Quarantine is the extraordinary re-imagining of the forty days Jesus Christ spent in the wilderness being tempted by the devil. Short-listed for the Booker Prize, this is a novel that you ll never forget.
