Show synopsis
The culmination of a lifetime of thought, study, and agony over the absurdity and meaning of life, The Judgment of Christ casts, in fantasy form, both a savage indictment and impassioned defense of God in the face of human suffering. A young victim of Auschwitz awakens in the spirit realm and demands an accounting from the Lord. With Lucifer's aid, she orchestrates a trial whose scope embraces the length of history, the breadth of civilization, the height of depravity and the depth of courage. By day, the participants argue the issues of faith, authority, justice, evil, and love. By night, they engage in intrigue, romance, soul-searching, and exploration of a mystical realm that eludes definition and defies all known physical laws. The trial sweeps through this pleroma like a tornado, shaking every soul to its core. The climax, at once tragically inevitable and thoroughly unpredictable, forces both characters and readers to face the truth of themselves.
