Book of God's Dreams

by Ella Bat-Tsion

Decide for yourself. Is it mystical poetry or poetic mysticism?

From a review on Softpile.com

A hi-tech poetry book but with the look and feel of an old book. Transcend the vulgar meaning of the words to discover mystical conversations between Ella and... Poets are a strange breed and more so when they are touched by a certain mysticism...

A collection of poems originally written in Hebrew and translated in English by the author.

Book of God's Dreams is a compilation of Christian poetry. It is arranged in a slideshow of pages, with soothing background music which makes is very interesting. If your interest is in poetry and in the Christian belief then this is worth the experience!
