Representaion Concering Books Sarah (Women of Genesis #1)

Sarai was a child of ten years, wise for her age but not yet a woman, when she first met Abram. He appeared before her in her father's house, filthy from the desert, tired and thirsty. But as the dirt of travel was washed from his body, the sight of him filled her heart. And when Abram promises Sarai to return in ten years to take her for his wife, her fate was sealed.

Abram kept his promise, and Sarai kept hers they were wed, and so joined the royal house of Ur with the high priesthood of the Hebrews. So began a lifetime of great joy together, and greater peril: and with the blessing of their God, a great nation would be built around the core of their love.

Bestselling author Orson Scott Card uses his fertile imagination, and uncanny insight into human nature, to tell the story of a unique woman--one who is beautiful, tough, smart, and resourceful in an era when women had little power, and are scarce in the historical record. Sarah, child of the desert, wife of Abraham, takes on vivid reality as a woman desirable to kings, a devoted wife, and a faithful follower of the God of Abraham, chosen to experience an incomparable miracle.

Commentary Epithetical Books Sarah (Women of Genesis #1)

First off, if you don't like Orson Scott Card, don't read it. Also, if you don't like the idea of taking biblical figures and making up possible stories surrounding them, don't read it.That said, I really enjoyed this book. I always feel like Card is a master at looking into the internal logic of his characters and showing why their behavior makes sense to them even if it doesn't make sense to anyone else. And what a valuable skill! I wish that we could all develop some of that in real life.

This book was definitely different than anything I've read before. The fact that it was technically a historical fiction from so long ago was a weird thing to wrap my head around. I had a hard time not getting to cynical about whether or not things really would have been the way Orson Scott Card wrote them. That being said if you go in thinking that it is a work of fiction and no one knew exactly how conversations would go or if they would live exactly the way that was imagined then it was a

I loved this book. It got a little slow in the middle because I knew the story, but I really enjoyed how it brought the characters to life. It is one thing to read the Bible and learn doctrine, but it is another to realize that these people had lives. They had to deal with such different issues with regards to their faith and every-day life. It was interesting to think about. It makes me want to re-read the story in the Bible...I think I will right now! See ya!

For being such a nonbelieving atheist-pants, I can get into a Biblical yarn like nobody's business. Whether you believe the tales in the Bible hold any shred of truth or are pure imagination, there's no denying that they have had a mighty influence on Western culture, and I am nothing if not a product of my awesome, cheeseburger-eating, fossil-fuel-burning, Bible-thumping culture. Even if I am a godless heathen.Being that I am a) a big fan of Biblical fiction and b) objective enough about the

Where do I start with all the things I did NOT like about this book? First off - I don't care what people say, Orson Scott Card writes like a "Junior High" novelist. You know, all the books you had to read in jr. high? That's about the caliber of his writing. I'm sure his science fiction stuff is better, and he can weave an interesting plot, but his actual writing skills are pretty amateur. He uses the same descriptive words over and over, and tries so hard to describe whatever it is, that it

I have read the author's science fiction books, and did not really like them. Granted, science fiction is not my favorite genre. I have often felt that the Bible (strictly speaking about it as a historical work, not denying the spiritual value) was fairly male-centric. There are some great women in the Bible and I would like to know them better. Even as a fictional account (and we must never confuse fiction with reality) this story was well researched and very interesting.

Prolific Science Fiction/Fantasy author puts his pen to the service of narratin the lives of the Hebrew Matriarchs in The Women of Genesis series. Here Card beautifully and sensitively narrates the story Sarah, filling in the gaps with consumate and imaginative skill.Unlike some novels, such as Sarah by Marek Halter and The Red Tent, by Anita Diamant, where the women are portayed as worshiping idols and other gods, Sarah is shown as a strong women, devoted to the service of Yahweh since she was
