Overview

God’s 120 Guardian Angels is Birnbaum’s mode of explicating his signature theme–

Editorial Reviews

Eighteen years in the making, David Birnbaum’s
“120 Guardian Angels”, the poetic portion of his new book God and Good, is a beautiful and fitting complement to his 1988 masterpiece, God and Evil.
Nearly everything about this new work, with the exception of its genuine excellence, contrasts
markedly with Birnbaum’s earlier book.
