Since the publication of the bestselling Sounding the Seasons, Malcolm Guite has repeatedly been asked for more sonnets. This new collection offers a sequence of 50 sonnets that focus on many passages in the Gospels: the Beatitudes, parables and miracles, teachings on the Kingdom, and the âe~hard sayingsâe(tm) - Jesusâe(tm) challenging demands with which we wrestle. In addition this collection includes: âe¢ A sequence of five sonnets on 'The Wilderness', exploring mysterious stories of divine encounter such as Jacobâe(tm)s wrestling with the angel. âe¢ Poetic reflections on music, hospitality and ecology. âe¢ Seven short poems celebrating the days of creation. âe¢ A biblical index pairing the poems with scripture readings for use in worship.
