‘River Deep, Mountain High’: A Poetic journey through the Psalms

Drawing on his recent poetry collection David’s Crown: Sounding the Psalms, Malcolm Guite explores the heights and depths of the psalter, tells how the psalms become a primary text for his during the Covid Pandemic, and gives some readings from and reflections on this new collection
