Title: Inspiring, magnificent story of women's lives
Review: This novel is clearly not for people who believe that the bible is factual and all the events in it literally happened the way they are written.If you are open to exploring the possibilities of what could have happened in biblical times (and yes, to biblical characters) and are dissatisifed with the paltry, shallow biblical accounts of women, I recommend this book.It is a wonderful story of sisterhood, friendship, loyalty, and love. Diamant is an excellent writer, and I was captivated by the book from start to finish (although I agree with other reviewers that the story was strongest before she left her mothers).
Is the review positive or negative?
