Having honed his skills translating Dante, Tasso and Lucretius,
well-known Catholic cultural commentator Anthony Esolen has now
published his first book of original poetry. The book-length poem
The Hundredfold: Songs for the Lord is centered around
twelve dramatic monologues set during and shortly after the time of
Christ, complemented and illuminated by dozens of lyric poems and
hymns.
