Title: Here's the deal...
Review: I am sure this novel was surprising to some people who have never experienced any variation in their chosen dogma. To those of you who have, however, and especially those of you who have researched menstration rituals, The Red Tent may be a wee bit on the boring side. The character developement was good and I enjoyed the fact that Diamant chose Dinah (only mentioned once in the Bible) to concentrate on. I regard this novel as fluff reading, however. It is mediocre at best with so many other available stories to read (try Anais Nin, Julio Cortazar,for example). Sorry, but maybe a little research ... would lead you to a better buy.
