About this book
There is much to admire in John Milton's Paradise Lost. Beyond the epic tale of fallen angels and sinful human beings, there exists a remarkable degree of insight into the emotions stirred by the competing forces that impact our lives. Paradise Lost: A Poetic Journey uses modern language to continue on that path, to reveal the moments of bliss, anxiety, empathy, deceit, and other emotions that permeate Milton's work while helping us to reflect on our own Christian values.
Paradise Lost: A Poetic Journey is written for both adult and young adult Christians, as well as for non-Christians who are curious about the biblical story of creation. The great variety of classical poetic structures utilized to tell the story will appeal to those interested in the multinational origins of formal poetry.
