Deeply affecting, The Red Tent combines rich storytelling with a valuable achievement in modern fiction: a new view of biblical women’s society. Dinah’s story reaches out from a remarkable period of early history and creates an intimate connection with the past. Known as simply the object of her brothers. They love Dinah and give her gifts that sustain her through a hard-working youth, a calling to midwifery, and a new home in a foreign land. In The Red Tent, author Anita Diamant re-creates the popular Biblical story of Jacob by giving a voice to his only daughter, Dinah. It begins with the story of her mothers–Leah, Rachel, Zilpah, and Bilhah–the four wives of Jacob. Purists will take exception to Anita Diamants liberties with other persona such as Joseph and Leah (even if her description makes them seem more real and complete). Told in Dinah’s voice, this novel reveals the traditions and turmoils of ancient womanhood–the world of the red tent. THE RED TENT is a fabulous biblical fiction novel that provides a full life to a footnote character in the Old Testament. In the Bible, her life is only hinted at in a brief and violent detour within the more familiar chapters of the Book of Genesis that are about her father, Jacob, and his dozen sons.
