What did Lazarus see beyond the veil of death? In this haunting masterpiece of psychological and philosophical fiction, Leonid Andreyev conjures a vision of resurrection unlike any ever imagined. Lazarus is not a tale of triumph over death—but of what death leaves behind. Strange, unsettling, and metaphysical, this is the story of a man raised from the grave only to cast a cold, unblinking gaze back upon the living. Wherever he walks, beauty withers, joy dissolves, and the veneer of meaning slips away. Those who look into his eyes do not die—they unravel.

Alwin og Aurora er tvillinger. De er knyttet sammen af et særligt bånd. En dag dukker Lazarus op, og ingenting er som før. ”Alt var blåt og grønt. Da de kom ned til havet, blev det også gult, strandengen var fyldt med troldhekse. Insekterne summede i luften, det knitrede i guld-regnen og Alwin følte, at denne dag ville blive den bedste dag i hans liv, og måske, en skrækkelig tanke strejfede ham, den sidste.” - Uddrag for bogen.

“When Lazarus rose from the grave, after three days and nights in the mysterious thraldom of death, and returned alive to his home, it was a long time before anyone noticed the evil peculiarities in him that were later to make his very name terrible.” One of Andreyev’s best-known short stories, Lazarus follows the Eastern Orthodox tradition that Lazarus never smiled again, and it explores what happened to the biblical figure after his resurrection from the dead. The unsettling coldness that exudes from the man who cheated death cannot be denied by anyone who meets him.

"Nur, weil du nicht paranoid bist, heißt das noch lange nicht, dass sie dich nicht beobachten. Wer bestimmt, was wahr ist? Die Realität liegt bei dir, sie entsteht in deinem Kopf. Lass dich nicht täuschen, dann wirst auch du nicht enttäuscht. Und denke immer daran: Vertraue niemandem!" ? In einer Zeit, in der kein Geheimnis sicher ist vor unbarmherzigen Erpressern, rücksichtslosen Verschwörern, bestechlichen Behörden oder machthungrigen Geheimdiensten, können wir nur uns selbst vertrauen. Wenn wir die Wahrheit wirklich wissen wollen, brauchen wir Stärke und Mut.

In the ancient lands of Judea, where the boundary between life and death is both sacred and feared, one man crosses that divide and returns irrevocably changed. Lazarus, raised from the grave by the hand of Christ, emerges not as the man he once was but as a shadow of his former self, haunted by the specter of death. The miracle of Lazarus's resurrection reverberates across the land, drawing pilgrims and skeptics alike. Yet, as Lazarus walks among the living, he carries with him an unsettling aura that instills dread and despair in all who encounter him.

Leonid Nikolaievich Andreyev was born on 21st August in Oryol, Russia, to a middle-class family of Polish, Ukranian and Finnish ancestry. In 1898 his first short story ‘Bargamot and Garaska’, published in the ‘Kurier’ newspaper, caught the attention and friendship of Maxim Gorky. Andreyev now discarded any other career path apart from that of author. His classic story ‘Lazarus’ brilliantly tells the story of Christ’s disciple, forced to wander the earth for all time; it is both chilling and heart-breaking in its Russian setting.

Und Jesus trat an das Grab, in das man Lazarus gelegt hatte und sprach: "Vater. Ich danke dir, dass du mich erhört hast. Ich wusste, dass du mich allzeit hörst. Doch um des Volkes Willen, das sich hier versammelt hat, spreche ich es aus, damit sie es hören und glauben. Lazarus!! Komm heraus!"

East Harlem, 2008. In an instant, a five-story tenement collapses into a fuming hill of rubble, pancaking the cars parked in front and coating the street with a thick layer of ash. As the city’s rescue services and media outlets respond, the surrounding neighborhood descends into chaos. At day’s end, six bodies are recovered, but many of the other tenants are missing. In Lazarus Man, Richard Price, one of the greatest chroniclers of life in urban America, creates intertwining portraits of a group of compelling and singular characters whose lives are permanently impacted by the disaster.
