Remember the sister of Joseph in the book of Genesis? No? Well, I didn't either. Dinah tells us the story of her 4 mothers and her whole extended tribe, including all those brothers, who will eventually sell off her baby brother into slavery to Egypt.
But this is really more about the life of all the women in her father's camp. The Red Tent is the place where they rest during their menstruation and where they recuperate from their daily toil. Here they enjoy life, tell stories and show us how women fared in biblical times.
Definitely a book for the girls. I am not sure if a man would like this? I enjoyed it a lot, so much that I read it in two days.
