Survey of fictional works on [[Lazarus]].
==Overview==
The figure of [[Lazarus]] has figured fairly prominently in works of fiction.
Besides those works that directly refer to the biblical Lazarus, there are other works that simply use his name or allude to his figure as the launch pad for various projects having nothing to do with the gospel narrative. Such volumes as ''Waking Lazarus'' (2006) by T.L. Hines, ''The Lazarus Vendetta'' (2004) by Robert Ludlum, and ''The Lazarus Effect'' (1983) by Frank Herbert and Bill Ransom have utilized the reference to the biblical character in the broadest of outlines. Similar examples are found in music (''Lazarus'' [2010] by Travie McCoy) and cinema (''The Lazarus Project'' [2008] by John Glenn). Lazarus seems to fascinate the general public even if it has no interest in the biblical story particularly because of his status as one 'raised from the dead'.
