The crucifixion (Second edition)

See all formats and editions

The Crucifixion is a modern American myth reframing the Old Testament in terms of the flight of African Americans from the Deep South during the Great Migration and the New Testament as the struggle for meaning in the modern, urban America.

It is the story of a young man who is lost and alone, and must return to the city of his birth to find his place in the world.

Ultimately, the man must awaken from the urban nightmare in which the world is "black and white" to realize that he and the city are embedded in a world of living color.
