It was okay but I'm not likely to reread it. There were some things that I felt wouldn't be like they were in Biblical times. ( ) A fictional novel based on the book of Esther 1-10, which took place in Susa (or Shusha), a city in the Persian Empire, today considered Iran. It begins with a current descendant of Queen Esther. Her father brings her to a museum where is held a memoir written by Queen Esther, and where every female has had the privilege to attach their signature just before their wedding day. The story is the reading of this memoir, which I didn’t really care for. The author fills in the blanks where the Bible left off, but he fails to bring you into the correct era of the story. The words and actions of the characters were just a little too modern. I would love to read how author, Anita Diamant, writer of “The Red Tent”, were to write the details of this story. She sure brought to life the characters of Jacob, his sons, and his only daughter, Dinah, who was the focus of the story. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Bestselling author Tommy Tenney expands the extraordinary story of Esther like no novelist has done before. Both a thriller and a Jewish woman's memoir, Hadassah takes readers to ancient Persia (now known as Iraq), into the inner sanctum of the palace and back out into the war zones of battle and political intrigue. This gripping drama of a simple peasant girl chosen over many more qualified candidates to become Esther, Queen of Persia, captures the imagination and fires the emotions of men and women alike.
