This well-preserved copy of “The Poem of the Man-God, Volume Two” by Maria Valtorta offers a unique and controversial perspective on the life of Jesus Christ. Valtorta, an Italian writer, claimed that the work was dictated to her by Jesus himself, detailing his public ministry from his own point of view. Despite skepticism from the Catholic Church, the work has gained a devoted following among some readers who find its vivid descriptions and intimate portrayal of Christ’s life profoundly moving. This second volume covers the pivotal second year of Christ’s public ministry, including notable events like the Sermon on the Mount and numerous miracles and parables. While its claims of divine inspiration remain contentious, the book stands as a distinct literary achievement, blending religious devotion with imaginative storytelling. For collectors, this ex-library hardcover edition, though lacking a dust jacket, represents an opportunity to own a significant part of Valtorta’s ambitious spiritual epic.
