The Psalms in Haiku Form: a Simplified Psalter / Richard Gwyn

This vivid and deeply moving new translation of the Psalms is based on the ancient Japanese form of Haiku poetry, which evokes a sense or feeling in a rigid pattern of three-line verse made up of seventeen syllables. This interpretation challenges readers who are familiar with text and introduces the Psalms to new audiences. Its simplicity will appeal to those looking for new ways in which to view their favourite verses.
