POV 3 - C. P. Clarke

. .

Résumé :
Bible stories are often told with a straight retelling of the scriptural text with very little emotion or motive emphasising what the story is trying to convey - the very real personal story contained with. Volume Three sees even more stories come to life, expanding on the emotions and motives of some well-known characters in the Bible. In this volume read about the king who spilt his guts, the lame guy that walked, the mute who talked, and the slaves who refused to eat. Find out what the audience thought of the show on the hilltop, and what happened when the people complained on the road trip. Get an insight into what was running through the mind of Judas before he died, and examine the reaction of those who had Jesus crucified. Take a look at a fresh retelling of some of the most well-known parables Jesus told. Follow the journey through the Bible as we relive some of the stories of God working in extraordinary ways in the lives of everyday normal people. P.O.V. Volume 3 is a collection of fresh and engaging short stories, poems, contemporary retellings, and performance pieces, all told from the Point Of View of Biblical characters. 'C. P. Clarke has a good eye for detail and a great turn of phrase. I recommend these retelling of Bible stories, both the more familiar and the less.' Andrew Watson, Bishop of Guildford
