A masterpiece of deep learning and fine sensibility, Robert Alter's translation of the Hebrew Bible, now complete, reanimates one of the formative works of our culture. Capturing its brilliantly compact poetry and finely wrought, purposeful prose, Alter renews the Old Testament as a source of literary power and spiritual inspiration. From the family frictions of Genesis and King David's flawed humanity to the serene wisdom of Psalms and Job's incendiary questioning of God's ways, these magnificent works of world literature resonate with a startling immediacy.

I listen to this over and over again!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes. The Gospel of Mark is a very accessible account of the life of Jesus Christ. Easy to follow and understand.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Jesus. It's his story.
What does Juliet Stevenson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Listening to Juliet Stevenson's reading is like hearing the story for the first time. She is precise in expressing the tenor of each passage. She brings every character to life. She does not inflect a judgmental perspective that many readers automatically assume is there. She's very easy to listen to.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I wanted to listen to it over and over again. It was very calming and insightful.
Any additional comments?
Best audio version of the Gospel of Mark out there!

Juliet Stevenson's narration is perfect!
Which character – as performed by Juliet Stevenson – was your favorite?
Jesus of course. It's his story.
Any additional comments?
I'm mostly here to praise the narrator. Her voice is majestic and soothing at the same time: I could listen to this over and over again.
