Bible Stories Retold by David Kossoff

Summary: Master storyteller brings the bible up to date
Review: This book is a joy to read and re-read. It is astonishing to hear familiar and unfamiliar bible stories 'read', for that is what he is effectively doing, in an easy modern day style. It makes one want to get out the old bible and compare the two styles. Kossof brings the characters alive in this way and so the impact of their lives is much stronger than in the old bibles, and it makes you realise their stresses and adventures are still the same today.
