The Last Temptation of Christ, by Nikos Kazantzakis. The late great Greek writer saw God as the search for God. Temptation is his soaring, shocking final vision of that search.
The Stormy Life of Lasik Roitschwantz, by Ilya Ehrenburg. In 1927 the slithiest tove in the Soviet literary propaganda corps aimed this sizzling satirical poker at the Russian Revolution. Ehrenburg recently denounced its publication in the West, something the non-hero of this kosher Candide would have relished.
The Ballad of Peckham Rye, by Muriel Spark. Peckham Rye is a London suburb where the people are too average to sin grandly and too average not to sin. The result is often hilarious.
