Aprašymas

Stephen Mitchell’s gift is to breathe new life into ancient classics. In Joseph and the Way of Forgiveness, he offers us his riveting novelistic version of the Biblical tale in which Jacob’s favorite son is sold into slavery and eventually becomes viceroy of Egypt. Tolstoy called it the most beautiful story in the world. What’s new here is the lyrical, witty, vivid prose, informed by a wisdom that brings fresh insight to this foundational legend of betrayal and all-embracing forgiveness. Mitchell’s retelling, which unfolds like a postmodern novel, interweaves the narrative with brief meditations that, with their Zen surprises, expand the narrative and illuminate its main themes.

By stepping inside the minds of Joseph and the other characters, Mitchell reanimates one of the central stories of Western culture. The engrossing tale that he has created will capture the hearts and minds of modern listeners and show them that this ancient story can still challenge, delight, and astonish.

Praise for Joseph and the Way of Forgiveness:

“Stephen Mitchell is a tireless curator of wisdom, whose life’s work is nothing less than the study of human transformation. With Joseph and the Way of Forgiveness, Mitchell has reached back in time to one of our oldest stories of grace and brought its lessons forward to us.”Elizabeth Gilbert, bestselling author of Big Magic and Eat, Pray, Love

"Joseph and the Way of Forgiveness is a beautiful 'retelling' of one of the most profound and moving passages in the Old Testament. Stephen Mitchell has fashioned a deceptively simple version of the story of Joseph and his brothers, and given it back to the world in luminous prose that the authors of the King James Bible would applaud. A unique and special kind of masterpiece." — John Banville, Man Booker Prize winner, author of The Sea

“...an incisive and moving account of the spiritual power of forgiveness.” — Elaine Pagels, bestselling author of The Gnostic Gospels
