Book Review of The Red Tent

Helpful Score: 3


In the vein of "The Mists of Avalon" and "Wicked" the author takes a somewhat familiar story and turns it on its ear by giving readers a different point-of-view. At times violent, sensual, and provocative, this book is a page-turner for those who enjoy fine detail and character development. I recommend this book to any who are familiar with, or who want to know, what the wives of the patriarchs of major world religions might have been like when there were no men around. Not just for women...this is a tale of great scope, great love, and the desire to live on into eternity.
