Presented in the ancient Japanese form of Haiku poetry, this vivid
and deeply moving new translation of the Psalms is vivid and deeply
moving. The rhythm of the 17-syllable verse, with its carefully
structured pattern, introduces a meditative element to the ageless
Psalms, reflecting the life of silent prayer and contemplation of a
monk on the island monastery of Caldey. Here are praises to
spiritual power presented in a stark and clear fashion. They will
challenge those familiar with the Psalms to new insight, while
introducing these ancient prayers to a whole new audience. Father
Richard Gwyn was born in Pembroke Dock, Dyfed in 1918 and was a
Brother of the Christian Schools for forty years, working in London
and overseas - firstly in Rome, and then Canada, India, Jamaica and
Nigeria. He transferred to the Cistercian Abbey on Caldey Island
off the Welsh coast, where he was ordained priest.
