God: A Biography
Is it possible to approach God not as an object of religious reverence, but as the protagonist of the world's greatest book -- as a character who  possesses all the depths, contradictions, and ambiguities of a Hamlet? How does he depend on the other characters, and how does his relationship with them show his development?  Miles provides a learned, original exegesis that will send readers back to the Bible in curious amazement.  Winner of the1996 Pulitzer Prizefor biography.
