The Plague Journal of John Donne

The Plague Journal of John Donne

John Griffiths reads the Plague Journal of John Donne. Better known as Devotions Upon Emergent Occasions. You can get a kindle or Applebook version of the book here - http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/23772 John Donne the Dean of St Pauls is a celebrity, a poet, a legendary preacher. Each week he explains what the plague means. Then he gets sick. The doctors say it is the plague. He is not allowed to do anything but write. So he writes the Devotions. Every day - a meditation, an expostulation and a prayer. It seemed like a very relevant book to read aloud during the height of the corona virus
