Gospel (novel)
1993 novel by Wilton Barnhardt
Gospel (ISBN 0312119240, St. Martin's Press) is a 1993 novel by Wilton Barnhardt focusing on the composition and discovery of a (fictional) noncanonical gospel. The author travelled extensively in Europe, the Middle East and Africa while researching it. Unusually, his acknowledgements contain not only expressions of gratitude, but also a faux-anathema against the credit-card company which cancelled his card while he was travelling in the Sudan.
