Resurrection Blues, Paperback / softback Book

Resurrection Blues Paperback / softback

Part of the Penguin Modern Classics series

Paperback / softback

Description

Arthur Miller's penultimate play, Resurrection Blues, is a darkly comic satirical allegory that poses the question: What would happen if Christ were to appear in the world today?

In an unidentified Latin American country, General Felix Barriaux has captured an elusive revolutionary leader.

The rebel, known by various names, is rumoured to have performed miracles throughout the countryside.

The General plans to crucify the mysterious man, and the exclusive television rights to the twenty-four-hour reality-TV event have been sold to an American network.

An allegory that asserts the interconnectedness of our actions and each person's culpability in world events, Resurrection Blues is a comedic and tragic satire of precarious morals in our media-saturated age.
