"Irreverent in a deliciously feminist way... Had me laughing out loud and wanting to share and discuss it with my closest girlfriends." Maria Leonard Olsen, author of the Amazon bestseller
50 After 50: Reframing the Next Chapter of Your Life
Cordelia Frances Biddle's
Listen to Me: The Women of the Bible Speak Out
envisions a feminist perspective for well-known narratives. Blending fire and humor, she reveals Eve, Ruth, Bathsheba, Queen Vashti, Delilah, et al, as real people possessing complex and turbulent inner lives.
Using contemporary language, she invites the reader to challenge assumptions and shibboleths while the women gather in pairs and as a group to recount their personal histories. From Babylon to the "dicey and pricy burgs" of Sodom and Gomorrah to 21st Century Manhattan, Eve and her companions' longing and rage, trauma, hope, outrage and empathy create a sisterhood that is readily transferred to modern society.
A nonbinary God makes an occasional appearance, chastising the men who crafted the tales. Adam, Abel and Cain also attempt to reconcile their created images with the emotional truths of their existences.
Listen to Me
is a story of solidarity and strength as the women of the Bible stand together and confront millennia of misogyny.
The novel is a vital shout for equality.
