Reviews:
Sharp, funny, St Paul meets Edward Lear...and lives.
I want to say to every reader of The Bible in Limerick Verse: Don't be in a hurry. Do not be deceived by the apparently simple approach that has been adopted. Give yourself time to read - perhaps to read aloud - to reflect, and to find for yourself the abiding truths that lie at the heart of our Christian faith.
A tour de force. Old wine into new bottles! How much easier it will be for us to remember the answers in the Catechism - the first step to living by them . . .
