Summary

The first complete English translation in 40 years. Jones has produced a version aimed at those who wish to pray through the poems, the source of all of St. John's work. It is also a literary delight: simple, direct, and close to the popular romance meter beloved of St. John himself. Spanish and English on facing pages.
