This is an account of the Second Coming as witnessed by a homeless alcoholic. While loosely modeled on the initial books of the New Testament (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), it interjects humor into the classic story (as is needed to hold the attention of modern readers) and presents it in a more readily understood contemporary format. Thus, Mary becomes Marya, a poor 16 year-old girl from Central Los Angeles, an evil televangelist takes the place of the money changers at the temple, and our bureaucracy is substituted for that of Rome's.
