Thomas Gardner artistically describes Jesus--"the Word made
flesh"--as a poem penned by God for the world, and John--author of
the Fourth Gospel--as the poem's interpreter. John's structural
patterns, repetitions, and narrative interventions invite readers
to experience for themselves the beauty of the divine poem. John in
the Company of Poets deepens this invitation by re-imagining the
biblical text through the eyes of such artists as Emily Dickinson,
Robert Frost, Wendell Berry, and T. S. Eliot, offering a literary
reading of the Gospel based upon their powerful poetic replies.
Poets are our best readers, contends Gardner, and his deft analysis
forges a fresh path into the issues and tensions of John's Gospel.
