The Red Tent
Book (italiano):
<div><br><b>A <i>New York Times </i>Bestseller</b><br> <br>A decade after the publication of this hugely popular international bestseller, Picador releases the tenth anniversary edition of <i>The Red Tent</i>.<br> <br>Her name is Dinah. In the Bible, her life is only hinted at in a brief and violent detour within the more familiar chapters of the Book of Genesis that tell of her father, Jacob, and his twelve sons.<br> <br>Told in Dinah's voice, Anita Diamant imagines the traditions and turmoils of ancient womanhood--the world of the red tent. It begins with the story of the mothers--Leah, Rachel, Zilpah, and Bilhah--the four wives of Jacob. They love Dinah and give her gifts that sustain her through childhood, a calling to midwifery, and a new home in a foreign land. Dinah's story reaches out from a remarkable period of early history and creates an intimate connection with the past.<br> <br>Deeply affecting, <i>The Red Tent</i> combines rich storytelling with a valuable achievement in modern fiction: a new view of biblical women's lives.</div>
