John Bunyan

Stay on the Narrow Way . . .for wide is the path that leads to destruction. With more than 200 million copies sold, The Pilgrim's Progress is one of the bestselling books of all time. But at nearly 350 years old, this beloved allegory of the Christian life can feel antiquated and worn, despite scenes of great beauty and turmoil. A modern reader might stumble at the conventions of the seventeenth century prose and never even get to Christian's battles with giants, dragons, and devils, to say nothing of the soaring palaces, impassable swamps, majestic mountains, cursed valleys, and the glorious Celestial City itself. Now from the mind of critically acclaimed novelist Zachary Bartels comes this dynamic adaptation of The Pilgrim's Progress that is both true to John Bunyan's original work and utterly original. With a cinematic sensibility, Bartels fleshes out scenes, characters, and concepts Bunyan merely hinted at. The result? An impossible-to-put-down retelling of this classic tale that is destined to become the definitive version of our time. Contains over 150 illustrations from a variety of artists, spanning more than 150 years]
