Poetry Month: Poems of Jesus

Yesterday I received in the mail a copy of a new book by Willis Barnstone called The Poems of Jesus Christ.  I'm working on a review for the Englewood Review of Books, and I haven't really started reading it yet, but it looks interesting so I thought I'd share it. 

Here's the premise: Jesus was a poet, and due to centuries of formatting and translation, we have lost his poetic voice. 

If you want to know more, you'll have to wait to read my review, or you can buy it for yourself.  THEN read my review.
