Book Review of The Red Tent

The Red Tent
reviewed on


Anita Diamant retells part of the story of Jacob, the father of the Israelites, from the point of view of one of Jacob's only daughters, if not his only daughter, Dinah. Diamant expounds upon the paltry few verses in which the Bible mentions to include women's ritual and goddess-centered beliefs during Biblical times.
