Description

The story of the agnostic whose life was exchanged for that of Jesus, by the Nobel Prize winning Scandinavian novelist.

Reviews

"Its power is the power of a parable, with the same timeless echo." -- The New York Times "As a parable, Barabbas is open to many interpretations. As a picture of a human soul, with or without parable, it is moving and convincing." -- Time "Swift, sparing, limpid, and hauntingly intense." -- Atlantic Monthly
