The Red Tent – Anita Diamant

READ FOR BOOKCLUB

Chosen by Rachel

Dinah, daughter of Jacob and sister of Joseph, is a minor character in the Bible, but the author has broadened her story and given her a voice in The Red Tent.

⚈ “I was attracted to this book because I was intrigued about how the author could take this ancient aspect of story telling and turn it into something modern and relevant. I was not disappointed and infact what it did show is as long as there are people involved, there is drama and adventure, excitement and sorrow; there is a story to tell.  The Red Tent is plot heavy and tension filled with full bodied characters. A really interesting story.” – Rachel
