Him by Geoff Ryman
A daring reimagining of the gospels, it asks what might have happened if the revered teacher of Galilee had been born female in a patriarchal world and lived as a man. Told through the voices of the women who surrounded and sustained this life—mothers, sisters, healers, and followers—it blends rich historical detail with intimate testimony to chart a path of compassion, defiance, and rumor across Roman‑occupied Judea. As empire and orthodoxy press in, the narrative weighs miracle against myth, showing how stories harden into scripture and how one person’s struggle with identity reshapes a community.
