THE RED TENT tells the little-known Biblical story of Dinah, daughter of the patriarch Jacob and his wife, Leah. In Chapter 34 of the Book of Genesis, Dinah's tale is a short, horrific detour in the familiar narrative of Jacob and Joseph. In the Biblical story Dinah is given no voice; she is the narrator of this imaginative novel, which reveals the life of ancient womanhood --- the world of the red tent.
