|  | Sacred Waters by Stephen Alter
Stephen Alter, who was born in the Himalayan foothills, crosses many miles, and several millennia, to search for the source of Indian religion. Along the way, as he reaches one holy spot after another, meeting grounds for pilgrims, remote towns, and forgotten temples, he delves into the myths and traditions of an antique land. He explores the tales of heroic derring-do, evil and good, and recounts the great stories of death, warfare, passions, and sacred wisdom that animate the vibrant history and religious traditions of India. As every pilgrim learns, a spiritual search involves travel but ultimately returns to the inner self. SACRED WATERS is a richly told narrative of a beautiful land and of a man's interior journey, and is for readers everywhere who seek to plumb their own spiritual sources. AUTHOR: Stephen Alter

 | Blood of the Lamb by Jack Miles
Jack Miles, author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning GOD: A BIOGRAPHY, returns to Biblical interpretation and presents a literary and unorthodox interpretation of the New Testament. Miles, a Harvard Ph.D. and former Jesuit, portrays Jesus as the humble incarnation of the God who was unable to keep his Old Testament promise to the Jews. To repair the situation, God, as Jesus, actively undertakes the suffering that the Jews themselves will undergo in the Roman and German holocausts and, in doing so, restores to them his promise of kingdom and immortality.
