Ich schreibe, weil keiner mehr zuhört... Menschen reden nur noch aneinander vorbei. Sehen sich nicht mehr. Kein Platz für Romantik. Kein Platz für tiefe Gedanken. Alles ist gestellt.

Booker continues the story he began in his earlier The First Book of David, retelling the life of one of the Bible's most famous and storied figures, King David, who began his life as a humble shepherd boy, shot to fame as the slayer of the Philistine giant Goliath, and eventually entered the court of savage-tempered King Saul. The Second Book of David takes up the story of David at the height of his kingly power, and in a winning formula Booker uses here again, that story is told not from an omniscient viewpoint or from David's own but rather from viewpoints of the people in David's life - the famous Bathsheba, the Prophet Nathan, King Saul's concubine Rizpah and others.
