If you are searching for a straightforward retelling of the book of Genesis in a modern idiom, this is not the book for you. If you are looking exclusively for a poetic rendering of the simple text, you've picked up the wrong book. If you are primarily after a textual commentary, you'll expect one that is far more expansive. If, however, you are after a lively, dramatic, highly original, and entertaining retelling of the Genesis stories in rhymed verse, which skillfully synthesizes both critical literary analysis and exotic, folkloristic, and occasionally whimsical elements–then this book is a must! The general reader will be charmed by what one influential British poet, Ann Sansom, has described as its «close rhymes and steady rhythm [which] are indeed very musical.» The student of Bible and folklore will be especially interested in the detailed «Notes to the Text,» providing the sources for and rationales of the many supplements to the familiar traditional text.
Poetry of the Gods Poetry of the Gods

Автор: Говард Филлипс Лавкрафт

Год издания: 

The story begins with the woman feeling outside of society and then Hermes appears and tells her that she has, though her reading of poetry learned something that only a few others have, that the gods are not dead but only asleep. They meet a series of the different gods and then artists from the past but it is time for a new poet to arrive and become a great messenger for the gods. The woman will not be that poet though but she will know it.
