Title: Altered and sometimes perverted
Review: I chose to read this book, because I usually love fictional stories that elaborate on Bible stories. I like to imagine what it must have been like had I actually lived at that time. However, I was disappointed with this book, because the known Biblical facts were altered--several of them. The only known Biblical fact concerning Dinah, the main character of the book, is that she was raped. This is not the story line. Another reason that I did not like this book was that the father of the nation of Israel, Jacob, is not presented in a light that I would say was respectable. If you are considering this book for a "Christian" read, think again. The facts are altered, even perverted at times, and the One True God is overshadowed in this book by other gods and idols worshipped by the women of the Red Tent.
