Publisher's Synopsis
Diving deep into Genesis, Stacey Zisook Robinson finds a rich array of characters and action that both transcend and trouble. Join her as she uses poetry to help understand the text better while also exploring God and meaning and faith that she finds there and in her own self. The poetry she shares soars in its imagery and immediacy. She deftly reframes the stories that form the basis of the text, choosing to focus more on the women, so we read of Sarah and Leah, Hagar and Tamar, in addition to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Who are these people? Why do they act the way they do? How do they connect to one another and to us today? These are some of the questions Robinson so beautifully asks and answers. This book is for anyone who has searched - or continues to search for - faith and meaning within our glorious text. Don't miss it!
