The most important figure in the early years of Christianity, Paul the Apostle founded several Christian communities in Asia Minor and Europe from the mid-30s to the mid-50s AD. Shimeon bar Joseph, the younger brother of Yeshu (known to us as Jesus), compiles the story of Paulus, gathering information from a multitude of people who knew him: from Tobias, who tells anecdotes about his school years when he was still called Saul, from Barnabas, Silas, Titus, and other sources.This novel describes Paul as the real founder of the religion we now call Christianity, spreading the doctrines throughout the Empire, from Jerusalem to Antioch, to Ephesus, Corinth, Athens, Galatia, Philippi, Thessalonica, and many other cities. Shimeon bar Joseph presents to the reader a stern, courageous man, obsessed with his mission, and convinced that the end of the world is near - absolutely determined to carry the message of Yeshu to everyone.Trevor Steele (born in 1940) is an Australian author of novels and stories in Esperanto and English. He is one of the best-known writers of fiction in the international language, and - as in the case of Paul the Founder - many of his novels written originally in Esperanto have been translated by him into English.
