Book 21: The Secret Chord by Geraldine Brooks


This is a historical novel about David (the Biblical King), told from the point of view of his prophet, Natan, as he compiles a history of David's life. He combines his personal recollections with oral histories taken from significant figures in David's life. It's a nice structure and a very interesting life. Brooks writes very well, so it's a pleasure to read.
