The Chronicles of Noah and Her Sisters: Genesis and Exodus According to Women

If Genesis and Exodus had been written by a woman what would they be like? Re-imagined from a womans perspective these familiar events delight the imagination and stir the soul in refreshing new ways. Miriam Therese Winter retells our ancient myths of Creation the Garden and the Flood and chronicles the adventures of the remarkable women of Genesis and Exodus: Sarah and Hagar Rebekah Leah Rachel Miriam and many more. According to the author she is presenting us with an ancient manuscript that was written long ago by one of the many wives of Solomon. This woman writer named Noah feared the loss of womens perspective as written records began replacing oral traditions. She wrote these Chronicles to offer another side to the story of our shared myths and memories. The Chronicles of Noah and Her Sisters is wonderful spiritual reading and a must for all women - and men - concerned about handing on the essentials of faith to their daughters and granddaughters.
