After Zorba the Greek and The Last Temptation, next best known is Christ Re-crucified, published in the US as The Greek Passion, whence the title of Martinü’s opera. In this novel, a group of villagers in Anatolia, under Turkish rule, are preparing a re-enactment of the Passion when the arrival of refugees from a neighbouring village destroyed in a massacre raises the stakes to such a pitch that all the major figures end up playing their biblical roles for real.
