One of the best poets ever and an amazing performer. Life changing. Would highly recommend.

Amazing book

For anyone well acquainted with the Old Testament, these poems are a blast. My favorite 2 were: There is no natural religion, and A marriage of heaven and hell. They do require multiple listens, and lots of uninterrupted periods of serious introspection.

As is Virgil from DMC was narrating it.

I recommend this book for anyone who wants an amateur but good sounding voice talent.

It is Blake
