Steve Sims talks to Michael Tavinor

Abel Clerk’s Bibel

Hay Festival 2010, Wednesday 2 June 2010

A questioning, curious and sometimes playful poem of underlying seriousness; heart-warming, sad, violent, tender, sensuous and in sharp focus. Its 81 sections correspond to the Bible from a theologically open viewpoint, for which a narrator provides an overall continuity. Chaired by the Dean of Hereford Cathedral.
