In this short edited collection of original translations Matt Valler narrates a journey through the Old Testament. Both familiar and unfamiliar, though always committed to a good story, The Unauthorized Version, Volume 1: Far From Home is a compelling and confusing tale. This is not a translation that sits easily with Christian or Jewish theology - in fact, you won't find "God" in this book. Instead it brings an ancient world alive, with its many gods, powerful dramas, and the epic story of a people on the move. In our globalized world, where migration and control are hotly contested, this translation explores the theme of home and the struggle to find it.
