A Lot of the Way Trees Were Walking: Poems from the Gospel of Mark - Paperback

by Cynthia Briggs Kittredge (Author)

This cycle of poems travels the path of the Gospel of Mark, rereading and retelling the story, flashing back and anticipating, reading from unusual vantage points, flowing with the author's perspective and rowing against it. Crossing the genres of poetry and biblical interpretation, the poems themselves become a way to experience the Gospel of Mark.
