The Singer Trilogy: The Mythic Retelling of the Story of the New Testament

By Calvin Miller. The Mythic Retelling of the Story of the New Testament. Includes the full text of three novels: The Singer, The Song, and The Finale in One Volume. ISBN 0-8308-1300.4. ** This is one of those books I read over and over again. I have read it probably 20 times since my first reading. Calvin Miller puts biblical stories into narrative poems that are so well written they force you to turn the page again and again. This book is the first in the Singer Trilogy, followed by The Song and The Finale. It is a poetic retelling of three biblical books: The Singer parallels the 4 Gospels, The Song retells the story of Acts, and The Finale is Miller's version of the book of Revelation. --from an Amazon reader review.
