Nikos Kazantzakis definió su obra como un grito y como un hilo rojo hecho con su sangre. Este libro se distancia de las interpretaciones biográficas y propone una lectura de su obra dramática como expresión de una escritura trágica que despunta en una encrucijada geográfica existencial y que se modela a partir de las reflexiones de Nietzsche, Bergson y Buda. Escritura trágica por cuanto persigue la transubstanciación y un absoluto espiritual y estético: salvar a Dios por medio de las palabras y la imaginación. Para la autora este imperativo teúrgico determina su elección y comprensión de la tragedia como género que amplifica la acción salvífica, reunificadora y dotadora de sentido. Con este lente son examinadas sus veintiuna tragedias a partir del análisis dramático de tres piezas paradigmáticas, Juliano el apóstata, Kouros y Buda, proponiendo dos tipos de tragedia concebidos como dos formas dramáticas y dos modelos de teúrgia, a los que subyacen comprensiones metafísicas diferenciadas, al tiempo que se muestra a la imaginación estética como única posibilidad de resolución y síntesis y, con ello, el devenir trágico de un proyecto escritural.
