Book Review of The Red Tent

The Red Tent
shermantics avatar reviewed on


I stopped reading The Red Tent after the first section. It was somewhat pornographic, giving details on how Jacob serviced his wives, how other males performed acts with animals, and how men masturbated. I understand that this was supposed to be a fictional interpretation of what was missing from the Bible, but did Anita need to be so vulgar? I took my copy of the book out of circulation and use it for what it is - trash.
