Review

"It yields fresh insights at each reading.... The book's... retelling is full of the surprises and contrasts of splendid and skillful metaphor, which makes the story new." - Moody magazine "The emotional power of style and rhythm conveys the meaning on two levels: the cosmic struggle between God and Satan, and the interlocking conflict between sin and love. It is a compelling way to tell the story of redemption." - The Review of Books and Religion "Calvin Miller sees with a single eye: his book is full of light,a powerful extended metaphor of incarnation and redemption." - Luci Shaw, poet and author
