Galilee is a novel by British writer Clive Barker, published in 1998[1] by HarperCollins Publishers.[2] It chronicles the rise and fall of two very different, but equally powerful dynasties.[3] The first dynasty, the Gearys, are a glamorous and rich family, similar to the Kennedys, who have been a power in America since the Reconstruction. The Barbarossas are a family of godlike beings. The two parents, Cesaria and Nicodemus, came into existence during the Bronze Age, somewhere between Canaan and the city of Samarkand. They have since had four children, the eldest of which is the titular Galilee.[4]
