Young, urban, and wealthy Matthew Slade, is sent to the isolation of the Hudson Highlands of New York State where he is to learn about his family’s ice business while being removed from the temptation of enlisting to fight for the preservation of the Union. Once there, he discovers a calling in a different direction, one that places him in contact with the small population of the remote hamlet called Doodletown. Matt becomes a quasi-woodsman and his neighbors begin to acknowledge the outside world and its ways. Along with the residents of Doodletown, throw into this social potpourri a stubborn Irish boat builder, a curious black man who survived the Draft Riots, a young Italian war widow, two smart Negro servants, and caring but meddlesome grandparents. The large differences between characters are diminished as the lives of the characters are drawn together. Crown Thy Good is a story of acceptance of change and of the mutual respect and understanding among people that most of us know is possible.

As well as the name of a virus, a corona is a crown, the pearly glow around the sun in certain astronomical conditions and a poetic form where interlinking lines connect a sequence. It is the perfect name therefore for this new collection of 150 poems by the bestselling poet Malcolm Guite, each one written in response to the Bible’s 150 psalms as they appear in William Coverdale’s timeless translation. The Psalms express every human emotion with disarming honesty, as anger and thankfulness alike are directed at God. All of life is here with its moments of beauty and its times of despair and shame. Like the Psalms themselves, the poems do not avoid the cursing and glorying over the downfall of your enemies, but wrestle honestly with them as we do when we come to say them.
