A new historical novel from the bestselling author of The Memoirs of Cleopatra Famously described as the 'Apostle to the apostles', after her discovery of Jesus' resurrection, Mary has sparked curiosity, controversy and veneration since her name first appeared in the Gospel of Mark. But who was Mary Magdalene? Was she a prostitute, a goddess, a feminist icon, a church leader or all of these things? Using testaments, letters and narrative Margaret George brings to life one of the most mysterious and controversial characters in the bible, creating an epic that is both immediate and moving. Grounded in both biblical and secular history, Margaret George narrates the first hundred years of the first millennium, sweeping away the legends and myths that have grown up around Mary. From her early life to her possession by demons, from her acceptance as a part of the circle of disciples to her struggles with the divine, Mary, Called Magdalene encompasses the sweep of a singular life, transcending the both history and fiction to become the 'Diary of a soul'.
