Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A New York Times Bestselling AuthorThe story of King David shimmers between history and legend. Now Pulitzer Prize-winning author Geraldine Brooks peels away the myth to bring David to life in Second Iron Age Israel. The Secret Chord traces the arc of his journey from shepherd to beloved king to murderous despot and into his dotage, providing new context for some of the best-known episodes of David's life while illuminating others that have been neglected.
Traces the arc of King David's journey from obscurity to fame, from shepherd to soldier, from hero to traitor, from beloved king to murderous despot and into his remorseful and diminished dotage.
