Reseña del libro "The Joseph Dialogues (en Inglés)"
Joseph of Nazareth, often ""the forgotten man"" in early Christian history, comes to life in the compelling historical novel, The Joseph Dialogues. At a time when Caesar Augustus has a firm grip on the Roman Empire, Alexios, a prominent tree farmer in a southern Syria Province, befriends Joseph, a young carpenter from Galilee. For forty years their friendship deepens and the purchase of lumber becomes secondary to their far-reaching dialogues about family, faith, and politics. Alexios, a widower at an early age, listens to news of Joseph's puzzling delayed marriage to Mary and the subsequent births of their children. Joseph in turn is a strong support to Alexios in times of grief. The Joseph Dialogues is the third novel in The Holy Family trilogy. Though it is fiction, the novel will give all readers a new appreciation of Joseph as a profoundly spiritual man who had a marked influence on his son, Jesus, in a turbulent time. Alan Sorem is also the author of two other novels in The Holy Family trilogy: Time: Jesus in Relationships (2013) and The Rabbi's Daughter (2015). A contemporary novel, Lucy Scott's Grand Stand: Age Is an Attitude, not a Condition, was published in 2014. He is a graduate of the College of Wooster, Yale Divinity School, and Fordham University (MBA). He lives in Louisville, Kentucky.
