　　Poet, warrior, and king, David has loomed large in myth and

legend through the centuries, and he continues to haunt our

collective imagination, his flaws and inc***istencies *** him

the most approachable of biblical heroes. Robert Pinsky, former

poet laureate of the United States, plumbs the depths of David’s

life: his triumphs and his failures, his charm and his cruelty, his

divine destiny and his human humiliati***. Drawing on the biblical

chronicle of David’s life as well as on the later commentaries and

the Psalms——traditionally c***idered to be David’s own

words——Pinsky teases apart the many strands of David’s story and

reweaves them into a glorious narrative.

Under the clarifying and captivating light of Pinsky’s

erudition and imagination, and his mastery of image and expression,

King David——both the man and the idea of the man——is brought

brilliantly to life.

媒体评论

　　"Episode by episode, Pinsky braids narrative togethe***ith

li***ry interpretation and psychological conjecture, drawing out

patterns of correspondence, filling gaps in the record with acutely

engaged speculation. Bypassing the accreti*** of thirty centuries

of piety and veneration, peering behind the Bible's spare record of

action and speech, Pinsky seeks to discern the feelings and

intenti*** of the living person from whom the myth of David

sprang."

　　--William Deresiewicz, The New York Times Book Review

　　"A tour de force of li***ry imagination, strengthened with

the author's wisdom and compassion. A truly amazing book."

　　--Ha Jin, author of Waiting

　　"A note-perfect performance, with all the generosity,

understatement, and burnished eloquence familiar to readers of

Pinsky's poems, translati***, and essays. Only a true poet would be

fit to tackle a subject of such centrality and deep fascination.

Pinsky guides us through David's art and life in a luminous,

moving, and compulsively readable narrative,"

　　--Tony Kushner, author of Angels in America

　　"Pinsky's unique blend of imagination, intellect, and

narrative cunning has enabled him to conjure an unf***ettable

portrait. He has at once unraveled and created a figure of mythic

power. A brilliant achievement."

　　--Stephen Greenblatt, author of Will in the World: How

Shakespeare Became Shakespeare
