'Intensely moving . . . feminist . . . a riveting tale of love' -
Observer Her name is Dinah. In the Bible, her fate is merely hinted
at in a brief and violent detour within the verses of the Book of
Genesis that recount the life of Jacob and his infamous dozen sons.
Anita Diamant's The Red Tent is an extraordinary and engrossing
tale of ancient womanhood and family honour. Told in Dinah's voice,
it opens with the story of her mothers - the four wives of Jacob -
each of whom embodies unique feminine traits, and concludes with
Dinah's own startling and unforgettable story of betrayal, grief
and love. Deeply affecting and intimate, The Red Tent is a feminist
classic which combines outstandingly rich storytelling with an
original insight into women's society in a fascinating period of
early history. Such is its warmth and candour, it is guaranteed to
win the hearts and minds of women across the world.
