I'm not sure specifically as I haven't read this particular 'the last gospel novel'. But it could have a preacher as a main character, someone who spreads the word of the gospel. There might also be a skeptic who is gradually won over by the power of the gospel message.
The main characters in the Good Samaritan gospel story are the Samaritan, the man who was beaten and robbed, the priest, and the Levite.
The main character in this story is Jesus as the good shepherd. His role is central as he is the one who watches over, protects, and guides. The other characters are implicitly the sheep which symbolize the followers or the believers. Jesus' relationship with the sheep is what the story is mainly about, showing his love, care, and sacrifice for them.
Well, it could be its themes. Maybe it delves deep into spiritual or moral concepts in a way that other novels don't. It might also have a very distinct writing style, perhaps using archaic language or complex sentence structures to give it an old - fashioned gospel - like feel.
The main characters are the Good Samaritan, the man who was beaten and robbed, and the priest and the Levite who passed by. The Samaritan is the hero of the story as he showed mercy.
Jesus is the most important character as these stories revolve around His birth. Then there are Mary and Joseph. Mary was chosen to be the mother of Jesus, and Joseph was her husband who took on the role of protecting and providing for the family.
Since I'm not familiar with the 'the last of the patriots novel', it's difficult to name the exact main characters. However, in a novel with such a title, we might expect to find characters who are deeply committed to their nation. It could be a lone hero who has seen the best and worst of his country and is determined to preserve its integrity. There might also be a family or a group of friends who, together, form the core of the patriot group, each with their own unique skills and perspectives that contribute to their cause.
Most likely, the last oracle is one of the main characters. There might also be an antagonist, perhaps someone who wants to stop the oracle from achieving their goal. There could be other characters like the oracle's family or friends from the past who play important roles in the story, either through memories or flashbacks. And there could be a character who represents the ordinary people in the world of the novel, who the oracle is trying to protect or influence in some way.
The main character is surely Hercule Poirot. Besides him, there may be a female character who could be either a victim, a suspect or someone who helps Poirot in his investigation. There might also be a police inspector or an official who interacts with Poirot during the course of the story. And perhaps there are some minor characters like servants or witnesses who play important roles in providing clues and adding to the overall atmosphere of the story.
I don't know as I haven't read it. Maybe it has a brave hero or a group of survivors as main characters.
Not knowing the exact last Roth novel makes it impossible to name the main characters accurately. But if we consider Roth's general style, his main characters were usually ordinary people in extraordinary situations or vice versa. They were often Jewish - American, facing the challenges of assimilation, generational differences, and personal growth. The last novel's characters might have been the culmination of these types of portrayals, but without knowing the title, we can only speculate.
