From the author of the critically acclaimed, award-winning bestsellerย Ishmaelย and its sequel,ย My Ishmael,ย comes a powerful novel with one of the most profound spiritual testaments of our time
ย
โA compelling โhumantaleโ that will unglue, stun, shock, and rearrange everything youโve learned and assume about Western civilization and our future.โโPaul Hawken, author ofย The Ecology of Commerce
ย
Father Jared Osborne has received an extraordinary assignment from his superiors: Investigate an itinerant preacher stirring up deep trouble in central Europe. His followers call him B, but his enemies say heโs something else: the Antichrist. However, the man Osborne tracks across a landscape of bars, cabarets, and seedy meeting halls is no blasphemous monsterโthough an earlier era would undoubtedly have rushed him to the burning stake. For B claims to be enunciating a gospel written not on any stone or parchment but in our very genes, opening up a spiritual direction for humanity that would have been unimaginable to any of the prophets or saviors of traditional religion. Pressed by his superiors for a judgement, Osborne is driven to penetrate Bโs inner circle, where he soon finds himself an anguished collaborator in the dismantling of his own religious foundations.ย
ย
More than a masterful novel of adventure and suspense,ย The Story of Bย is a rich source of compelling ideas from an author who challenges us to rethink our most cherished beliefs.
