Katherine Rundell's biography 'Super-Infinite' takes readers through the rich tapestry of John Donne's life, from his days as a religious outsider and social calamity to his tenure as a renowned preacher and society's favorite. As Donne morphs through roles of scholar, sea explorer, member of Parliament, and revered Dean of St Paul's Cathedral, Rundell paints a portrait of a man of contradictions, brilliant beyond his own Elizabethan era. Dubbed one of the English language's most insightful love poets, Donne's life serves not only as a historical account but as an enduring lesson on the complexities of living. Rundell's narrative sparkles with scholarly insights and delivers a vivid reexamination of Donne's still-resonating words and multifaceted obsessions.
