Immerse yourself in Judea under Roman rule with 'Simón el Mago', a historical novel by Jean-Claude Carrière.

Why does the multitude follow a chosen one from heaven? This edition from Editorial Juventud, with 205 pages, invites you to reflect on the obsession with the supernatural and the search for truth.
