kainoscope started reading Holy Bible, King James Version by Anonymous
I decided this year to read (listen) to the King James translation of the bible in its entirety. My library had it as an audiobook as read by Christopher Glyn. The bible (in-particular the King James) is such a cornerstone of western writing that it's essentially necessary to read, if you want to grasp the history of English language and literature. It's not my favorite translation (the New Revised Standard Version is), but so far this has proven a mostly enjoyable experience. After I complete the Protestant canon, I intend to listen to Glyn read the Apocrypha as well.
