Book Description
The birth of Jesus has been well chronicled, as have his glorious teachings, acts, and divine sacrifice after his thirtieth birthday. But no one knows about the early life of the Son of God, the missing years -- except Biff, the Messiah's best bud, who has been resurrected to tell the story in the divinely hilarious yet heartfelt work "reminiscent of Vonnegut and Douglas Adams" (Philadelphia Inquirer).
Verily, the story Biff has to tell is a miraculous one, filled with remarkable journeys, magic, healings, kung fu, corpse reanimations, demons, and hot babes. Even the considerable wiles and devotion of the Savior's pal may not be enough to divert Joshua from his tragic destiny. But there's no one who loves Josh more -- except maybe "Maggie," Mary of Magdala -- and Biff isn't about to let his extraordinary pal suffer and ascend without a fight.

While the Bible may be the word of God, transcribed by divinely inspired men, it does not provide a full (or even partial) account of the life of Jesus Christ. Lucky for us that Christopher Moore presents a funny, lighthearted satire of the life of Christ--from his childhood days up to his crucifixion--in Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal. This clever novel is surely blasphemy to some, but to others it's a coming-of-age story of the highest order.
Joshua (a.k.a. Jesus) knows he is unique and quite alone in his calling, but what exactly does his Father want of him? Taking liberties with ancient history, Moore works up an adventure tale as Biff and Joshua seek out the three wise men so that Joshua can better understand what he is supposed to do as Messiah. Biff, a capable sinner, tags along and gives Joshua ample opportunities to know the failings and weaknesses of being truly human. With a wit similar to Douglas Adams, Moore pulls no punches: a young Biff has the hots for Joshua's mom, Mary, which doesn't amuse Josh much: "Don't let anyone ever tell you that the Prince of Peace never struck anyone." And the origin of the Easter Bunny is explained as a drunken Jesus gushes his affection for bunnies, declaring, "Henceforth and from now on, I decree that whenever something bad happens to me, there shall be bunnies around."
One small problem with the narrative is that Biff and Joshua often do not have distinct voices. A larger difficulty is that as the tone becomes more somber with Joshua's life drawing to its inevitable close, the one-liners, though not as numerous, seem forced. True to form, Lamb keeps the story of Joshua light, even after its darkest moments.
--Michael Ferch
From Publishers Weekly
A childhood pal of the savior is brought back from the dead to fill in the missing 30-year "gap" in the Gospels in Moore's latest, an over-the-top festival of sophomoric humor that stretches a very thin though entertaining conceit far past the breaking point. The action starts in modern America, specifically in a room at the Hyatt in St. Louis, where the angel who shepherds "Levi who is called Biff" has to put Christ's outrageous sidekick under de facto house arrest to get him to complete his task. Moore (Bloodsucking Fiends) gets style points for his wild imagination as Biff recalls his journey with Jesus dubbed Joshua here according to the Greek translation into and out of the clutches of Balthasar, then into a Buddhist monastery in China and finally off to India, where they dabble in the spiritual and erotic aspects of Hinduism. The author gets more serious in his climax, offering a relatively straightforward, heartfelt account of the Passion and Christ's final days that includes an intriguing spin on how the Resurrection might have happened. The Buddhist and Hindu subplots seem designed to point out the absurdity and excesses of religious customs, but none of the characters are especially memorable, and eventually both plot and characters give way to Biff's nightclub patter. As imaginative as some of this material is, the sacrilegious aspects are far less offensive than Moore's inability to rein in his relentless desire to titillate, and his penchant for ribald, frat-boy humor becomes more annoying as the book progresses. Moore has tapped into organized religion for laughs before, but this isn't one of his better efforts. Agent, Nick Ellison. Author tour.
From Booklist
If Jesus was fully human, then of course he must have farted, but never has messianic flatulence been used to greater comic effect. Jesus' best pal, Biff, has been reincarnated by the Angel Raziel to write a true gospel--the real story, in which Jesus and Biff set out to find the three magi after the betrothal of Mary Magdalene (Maggie) to Jakan the jerk. Jesus (or Josh, as Biff calls him) and Biff head east, meeting immortality-obsessed Balthasar and then brothers Gaspar and Melchior, from whom they learn of Buddhism, Hinduism, and Yoga, which Josh teaches to his pet elephant. Absurd? Of course, and as in Moore's other books, the jokes, ranging from the sublime to the sophisticated to the utterly sophomoric, make the book. What Lamb lacks in theological sophistication it more than compensates with mirth. Although many will find something offensive in this novel, which pokes fun at every major religious tradition that existed in the first century, they will find it simply impossible not to laugh.

From School Library Journal
Adult/High School-An angel has resurrected Levi bar Alpheus, known as Biff, to tell this story of his life with Joshua, better known to the modern world as Jesus Christ. As youths, they travel to the East in search of the wise men who gave gifts to Joshua at his birth, because the young man has a problem: he knows he's the Messiah, but he doesn't know what to do about it. Along the way, he and Biff come in contact with the spirituality of the East, along with a smattering of martial arts, strange poisons, abominable snowmen, and more. The story concludes with their return to Israel and Biff's own explanation of the events that make up the traditional gospel narrative. Readers who might be offended by the author's casual treatment of Christian themes may also take umbrage at his treatment of Judaism, Buddhism, Taoism, Hinduism, and much else. However, the author manages to share a variety of the world's spiritual insights while creating interesting and vivid characters. The style is smooth, drawing readers into the story seamlessly except for the need to laugh out loud every page or two. The humor is good-natured, despite the fact that Biff claims to be the inventor of a practice known as "sarcasm." In an excellent afterword, the author explains the choices he made in writing the novel, which will fascinate would-be writers, as well as provide a rebuttal for the book's likely critics.

我曾经以为，一本能够让我反复琢磨，让我时常挂念的书，是少之又少的。然而，《Lamb》做到了。它像一颗种子，在我心中悄悄地埋下，然后在我的意识深处，一点一点地生根发芽，长出枝叶，甚至开花结果。我喜欢作者的叙事手法，它不走寻常路，而是将故事碎片化，再通过一种近乎魔术般的方式，将这些碎片重新组合，展现出意想不到的宏大图景。每一次的阅读，都像是第一次，我总能在新的角度发现新的惊喜，新的线索。我特别欣赏作者对人物内心世界的细腻描摹。那些隐藏在言语和行为之下的暗流，那些难以启齿的欲望和挣扎，都被他展现得淋漓尽致。我常常会在读到某个角色的独白时，停下来，反思自己是否也有过类似的经历，有过类似的挣扎。这本书没有给我一个明确的答案，它更像是一面镜子，让我看到自己，也看到更广阔的世界。它让我开始思考，关于选择，关于命运，关于我们每个人在这个世界上的位置。我发现，这本书不仅仅是关于故事，它更是关于生命本身，关于我们如何去理解，去感受，去活。
评分这本《Lamb》给我带来的阅读体验，简直就像一场猝不及防的心灵风暴，又或者说，是一次被精心策划的、充满善意的“意外”。我原本以为自己会遇到一本讲述生命、关于成长，抑或是探讨人性中某种极端光辉或阴影的作品。然而，当我沉浸其中，那些文字便如同一张巨大的、铺陈开来的网，将我牢牢地捕获，让我不得不重新审视我所认识的世界，甚至是自己。它没有给我预设的答案，反而抛出了无数个让我为之动容、为之思考的问题。书中的人物，他们的经历，他们的选择，每一个细节都似乎带着某种莫名的力量，悄无声息地渗透进我的思绪，让我忍不住去揣摩，去想象，如果是我，我会如何面对？故事的展开方式尤其让我惊喜，它没有采用线性叙事，而是将时间线巧妙地打乱，又在关键节点处如同拼图般精准地拼接，每一次的反转都伴随着我内心的“啊哈！”时刻，那种抽丝剥茧的乐趣，简直让人欲罢不能。更别提作者对细节的把握了，无论是对环境的细致描绘，还是对人物内心活动的细腻刻画，都达到了令人惊叹的地步。我常常会因为某一个微不足道的场景，某一句不经意的对话，而陷入久久的沉思，仿佛那个场景、那句对话就发生在我眼前，我就是其中的一员，共同经历着命运的起伏。这种沉浸感，是很多书籍难以给予的。它让我感觉自己不仅仅是在阅读一个故事，更是在参与一场深刻的对话，一场关于存在，关于选择，关于爱与被爱的对话。我甚至觉得，读完这本书，我好像与书中某些人物之间建立了一种奇妙的联系，他们仿佛也活在了我的脑海中，与我一同呼吸，一同感受。
