It's a deceptively simple style, lyrical but clear as running water with the requisite flashes of blinding insight. It's an ace that has bagged him more brushes with a celebrity crowd than you'd expect a translator to have, including the adulation of TV legend Norman Lear and a stint onscreen discussing Genesis with Bill Moyers. It's true about the cookie factory. Occasional contradictions notwithstanding, Mitchell marvels at the similarities he finds among diverse sacred texts, even those from opposite ends of the earth. One similarity, of course, is godly self-promotion.
Every artist knows that.
