Enfant terrible de la littérature américaine contemporaine, Gore Vidal, né le 3 octobre 1925, a une vingtaine dessais à son actif, mais aussi six pièces de théâtre et environ vingt-cinq romans. Il a débuté sa carrière dans les années 1950 en écrivant beaucoup pour la télévision et le cinéma, avant de se consacrer pleinement à la littérature. Cest avec « Un garçon près de la rivière » paru en 1948 qu'il se fait connaître car il ose aborder ouvertement le thème de lhomosexualité dans une Amérique encore bien puritaine. Depuis il est surtout connu pour ses grandes fresques historiques : « Julien » en 2006, « Empire » en 2008 ou « Lincoln » en 2010. Il ne faut pas passer à côté de « Palimpseste » paru en 2006, dans lequel il dresse une superbe galerie de portraits des personnalités quil a croisées dans la première partie de sa longue vie, et quil complète en 2008 par un deuxième tome « A lestime ».

Résumé
Timothy (later St. Timothy) is in his study in Thessalonika, where he is bishop of Macedonia. It is A. D. 96, and Timothy is under terrific pressure to record his version of the Sacred Story, since, far in the future, a cyberpunk (the Hacker) has been systematically destroying the tapes that describe the Good News, and Timothy's Gospel is the only one immune to the Hacker's deadly virus. Meanwhile, thanks to a breakthrough in computer software, an NBC crew is racing into the past to capture-live from the suburb of Golgotha-the Crucifixion, for a TV special guaranteed to boost the network's ratings in the fall sweeps.
As a stream of visitors from twentieth-century America channel in to the first-century Holy Land-Mary Baker Eddy, Shirley MacLaine, Oral Roberts and family-Timothy struggles to complete his story. But is Timothy's text really Hacker-proof? And how will he deal with the truth about Jesus' eating disorder? Above all, will he get the anchor slot for the Big Show at Golgotha without representation by a major agency, like CAA 1, 896 years in the future? Tune in.
