Story
The internationally renowned novel about the life and death of Jesus Christ. Hailed as a masterpiece by critics worldwide, The Last Temptation of Christ is a monumental reinterpretation of the Gospels that brilliantly fleshes out Christ’s Passion. This literary rendering of the life of Jesus Christ has courted controversy since its publication by depicting a Christ far more human than the one seen in the Bible. He is a figure who is gloriously divine but earthy and human, a man like any other - subject to fear, doubt, and pain.

Story
Five hundred years before the birth of Jesus, a God-realized being named Lao-tzu in ancient China dictated 81 verses, which are regarded by many as the ultimate commentary on the nature of our existence. The classic text of these 81 verses, called the Tao Te Ching or the Great Way, offers advice and guidance that is balanced, moral, spiritual, and always concerned with working for the good.

Life changing book

Publisher's Summary
Like The Last Temptation of Christ, Saint Francis is a fictionalized biography of a widely venerated Christian figure: Francis of Assisi, whose renunciation of his young man’s life of leisure and founding of a religious order dedicated to living in poverty and sharing the Gospels with all living things profoundly influence the ways in which Christians the world over worship and give service to their god even today.
Recounted in Nikos Kazantzakis’ striking prose through the eyes of the saint’s brother, Leo, the life of Saint Francis shines in this audiobook as a heroic example of inspirational leadership and boundless love for God and all his creatures.

Narration makes this so much more accessible
I’ve read on paper this book and most of Kazantzakis’ other books. The narration by Joshua Saxon of this book is amazing. One thing that it brings out is the unexpected beauty in particular lines and phrases. Listening to this book rather than seeing the words on paper brings to life this poetry. Like how the Odyssey wasn’t meant to be read, this book was meant to be listened to.

Having a hard time with narration
I like a lot about this book and was really interested to go on a journey into St. Francis's life. The narration is at times very good, other reviewers spoke highly of that and it was part of the reason I bought it. But I just can't get used to the absurdly low and gruff voice for Francis himself, it feels so untrue to me, he gives him a voice like a grumpy old man when he is still young at the beginning. No tenderness in the voice of Francis, I find it spoils it rather for me which is a shame. I don't think I'll finish it, I might have to buy the paperback

A Fantastic Novel Beautifully Presented
Saint Francis is a novel that shares many similarities with The Last Temptation of Christ. They both are about Kazantzakis' favourite themes of man's search for God and the power of faith. And, like TLToC, the prose is absolutely wonderful, almost like poetry.
To describe Joshua Saxon's work on this as merely narration does him a massive disservice. It is a performance in every aspect. You can feel his understanding of the material throughout. You believe every word. It is always a pleasure to listen to an audiobook performed by someone so on top of their game.
A fantastic novel beautifully presented.
Highly recommended.
