Review of 'The Childhood of Jesus' on 'GoodReads'

5 stars

A beautiful, imaginative, unpredictable, poetic and philosophical adventure. The world of Simón and the boy David, two friends who find themselves struggling against the system of society of a semi-utopia that they have arrived in by boat.

This book should be read by everyone. It's Flann O'Brien without the booze.
