Description: "The Expositions of the Psalms constitute the largest of Augustine's works; they represent for the most part homilies given to his congregation in Hippo over several years. Here we meet Augustine, the priest and pastor, patiently exploring with his people the 'prayer book of the Bible.'

The volume gives us, not extracts, but a wonderful selection of complete homilies; they reveal to us the intimate contours of Augustine's thought. Maria Boulding's superlative translation is used and Michael Cameron provides a simple, but penetrating introduction to how to read Augustine on the Psalms. This is a book, both profound and moving: to read and re-read".

The very Revd Archpriest Andrew Louth FBA Professor Emeritus of Patristic and Byzantine Studies, Durham University, UK.
