Jesus died with a psalm on his lips. For millennia, humans have been shaped by the Psalms. And before the Nazis banned him from publishing, German theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer published this book on the Psalms. What comfort is found in the Psalter? What praise, and what challenge? What threat? In the pages of Psalms: The Prayer Book of the Bible, discover the richness this book of Scripture held for Bonhoeffer, and learn to pray psalms along with Christ. First published in 1940, this classic reveals how the Psalms are essential to the life of the believer and offers Bonhoeffer's reflections on psalms of thanksgiving, suffering, guilt, praise, and lament. Now with an introduction by Walter Brueggemann and excerpts from the Psalms, Bonhoeffer's timeless work offers contemporary readers ancient wisdom and resources for the living of these days. Includes a biographical sketch of Bonhoeffer written by his friend and biographer Eberhard Bethge.

An earlier Christopher Ash
Interesting that he also uses the way Christopher Ash teaches the Psalms that we sing them only after Christ does, which helps us with the curse psalms (and he points out that we only ask God to curse them rather than avenge ourselves, i. e. implied eschatological outlook there).
Very short but really encourages you to get stuck into the Psalms yourself. The framework helps you read the rest of the Psalms well, with not a self-centred by God/Messiah centred outlook.
