“The Marién Revelation carried me along in a rush so that I finished it in one day … While focusing on the interwoven stories of Mary the mother of Jesus and Marién, a very modern Mexican American woman, Santana depicts Jesus as the lover of the male "Beloved", whose portrait is indebted the Gospel of Mark. The novel is an intricately woven tapestry of ancient wisdom (heavily drawn from the Bible as well as Egyptian and Greek sources), of throbbing sexuality, and of spiritual desolation and exhilaration. The book is bursting with energy and inventiveness."
Theodore W. Jennings, author of "The Man Jesus Loved."
