The Man Born to Be King: A New Critical and Annotated Edition by Dorothy L. Sayers. In 1941-42, the BBC broadcast a series of radio dramas that brought the life and ministry of Jesus to life in a new way. Written by Dorothy L. Sayers, these plays presented twelve episodes from the visit of the magi to the death and resurrection of Christ, affirming the kingship of Christ against the backdrop of World War II. The plays were both controversial and incredibly successful, bolstering the morale of the country during the war. They were subsequently published in 1943 and remain among Sayers's most beloved works today. This new edition features fresh insights from scholar Kathryn Wehr, exploring the background, creative process, and ongoing significance of the life of Christ. Listen again to this powerful story, or discover it for the first time, with a deeper understanding of its enduring themes and relevance today.
