About
​
A Devil with a wedgie. A politician whose career is sponsored by a deodorant company. A khaki wearing, sneaker sporting god. A murdered businessman. A corrupt angel. Nuns who smuggle alcohol. A dying Russian literature professor. Holocaust refugees. A saintly widow. These are but a few of the interesting and often inspiring characters one meets during the utterly hilarious, intellectually stimulating, philosophically rousing, plot-twisting journey that is The Reluctant Messiah. Odd bedfellows to be sure, but each in his or her own way contributes mightily to a series of profound revelations sure to transform one’s understanding of life, death and what it means to be a good person.
