God is a strange character in the fact he resists being a character. "Milton and Monotheism" is a scholarly discussion of the work of Milton, a man who spent much of his life writing fiction and poetry focusing on God and Christianity, often retelling biblical stories. Author Abraham Stoll discusses Milton's use of God as a character, and does well in outlining Milton's thought processes when approaching the omnipotent being. An intriguing analysis of God in Milton's writings (and in a way, fiction in general), "Milton and Monotheism" is recommended for readers who want a greater understanding of Milton's work, as well as college and community library literary studies collections.
