Robert Graves (18961985) was one of England's most significant poets and prose writers of the 20th century. His series of historical novels, of which the most famous are I am Claudius, Claudius Divine, Prince Belisarius, Golden Fleece, Homer's Daughter and, of course, King Jesus, placed him among the greatest novelists of the 20th century. The novel “King Jesus” (1946) tells about a turning point in the history of mankind Jesus appears in the novel not as an icon, but as a living person who, suffering for people, cannot immediately make everyone happy. And around Jesus is life with political, palace, temple intrigues. Design development of the artist series D. IMILISAKHITIER F. KARBYSHEV
