  1. I’ve never actually heard the show Desert Island Discs (it’s British) but I’ve heard NT Wright use it in an illustration. But he said that they gave the Bible and the Complete Works of Shakespeare both as given.

    Also Nathan, a book you might enjoy that takes the discussed ideas of Walter Brueggemann and runs with them, “Come Out My People!” by Wes Howard-Brook.

  2. Well, if I had another book beyond my Shakespeare, I’d probably go with Goethe’s Faust, preferably Walter Kaufmann’s two-column edition. (Perhaps I could learn a bit of German while stranded.)

    I’d not heard of the Howard-Brook book, Gus, but it’s on my amazon.com wish list now. 🙂
