Three Gospels (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Reynolds Price pays tribute to his literary love of translation in this adaptation of the Gospels of Mark and John, in addition to a gospel written by the esteemed novelist himself. Esteemed novelist, dramatist, scholar, essayist, and poet, Reynolds Price turns his attention back to a literary love he had discovered earlier in his career: translation. But for Reynolds that didn't mean abandoning his passion for writing original work; powerful and imaginative, Three Gospels offers eloquent translations of the Gospels of Mark and John as well as a gospel never before seenan original one written by Price himself. These stunning triumphs of imagination tell and retell some of the most iconic ancient stories in Price's unparalleled literary voice.
