the brothers karamazov

>>7699151
all of them. it is your task to read obvious allegories into a book.

>>7699158
This; The Grand Inquisitor and the figures of Alyosha and The Elder. Except you asked for sci-fi. Genre-fiction pleb.

The Idiot, more obviously so than any other Dostoevsky.

But they all fail to be honest if they don't have some kind of allusion to the Eucharist.

the three stigmata of palmer eldritch

New Sun has actually.
>>7699275
Kinda, but it's more of what if the bible was written by a schizophrenic on meth.
>>7699158
It's not an allegory at all.
>>7699151
Silmarillion, as anon mentioned before The Idiot and Book of the New Sun.

>>7699151
Space Trilogy by CS Lewis for not even trying to be subtle.

A Canticle for Leibowitz for straightforward Catholicism.

The Book of the New Sun for maximum cred/critical acclaim/literary merit.

Countdown to Eschaton by John C Wright for something more pulpy.

The Divine Invasion by PKD for deranged theology.

We by Yevgeny Zamyatin

james blish, a case of conscience.. wait, no, that's a Satan allegory.

it was written by a very lonely spiritual schizophrenic monk probably tripping balls on ergot

Why would this book fall in OP's description ?

>We by Yevgeny Zamyatin
Seems to follow a basic sacrificial lamb thing
like if the bible just cut out after jesus' crucifiction
and left it ambiguous as to whether he really was the son of god

Lotr is not allegory. Don't give me any death of the author nonsense. It's not allegory at all and the author said so.

>>7700659
Well, maybe not in the ham-fisted "A represents B" style of Lewis, but there's semiotically Jesus-y stuff all over.

>>7700671
only the vague way that almost every story follows the heros journey in one form or another including the bible and things before it, but there's no saviour character knowingly going to his death to save the lives or souls of the many
except for tom bombadil of course
