Whileretaining much of the beloved phrasing from theKing James Bible, Ernst has made stylistic changesthat give the text a fresh and arresting charm. Inaddition, twelve detailed gouache paintings appropriatelycapture the poem's moods of love by portrayinga woman longing for her lover. Interspersedbetween sections of the poem and their accompanyingillustrations is short, thoughtful commentaryto help readers understand ancient references inthe text.Brilliantly regaining the erotic power, poeticbeauty, and authentic experience of the text, thisupdated and reenvisioned Song of Songs restoresfor modern audiences the same seductive spellthat has captivated readers for thousands of years.
