SUGGESTION: Poetics of Biblical Narrative

David Paul

Logos has very few if any of the most often cited books on Biblical literature, particularly Biblical narrative, and this is a glaring vacancy in their stable of resources. We know about Robert Alter's absence despite years of pleading. Perhaps even more often cited is Meir Sternberg's Poetics of Biblical Narrative. This should be added ASAP.

They do have a couple of Adele Berlin's books on these topics, which is good, but of course she cites all of the above, plus James Kugel, who also has tons of important books not in Logos. Imo, FL needs to address some of the gaping holes in both topics and importance.

I have this one in my Kindle library, but would definitely rebuy it to have it in Logos.

Yes! I asked for that along with a number of other books on narrative theology over six years ago. We've only gotten 5 of the 21 so far.
