The Secret Gospel of Mary Magdalene by Michele Roberts

The Secret Gospel of Mary Magdalene by Michèle Roberts

This was the story of Jesus from A woman’s perspective. It’s also about Mary Magdalene’s relationship with Jesus. It is a book of revelation, that embraces a different aspect of Christianity- women are equal with men and their spirituality is recognised and celebrated.
I have read this over the Easter weekend, which felt quite apt. Putting aside any Christian beliefs, I love the old and new Testaments for the wonderful stories that they are and I always enjoy stories re- worked from the woman’s viewpoint. I really enjoyed this.
