SONIC (Japan) (2008/05/23):
I loved this book with it's details about the life of women.The concept of a Red Tent is intriguing and the cutoms of marriage, pregnancy and child birth were all interesting.I couldn't put it down!
Heather McKinney (USA: AR) (2008/08/13):
This is absolutely one of my favorite books. I loved it so much that I forwarded quotes to my friends. It made me appreciate being a woman and the companionship that we share with other women.
Beverly T (USA: NY) (2009/01/02):
The author had these richly layered, wise, heroic-women narratives to work with, but gave us only ordinary women, obsessed with sexual relations, menses, gossip - women seeing very little virtue in the men around them, and little intimate knowledge of the God of ancient Judaism. There's nothing else. Aside for an abbreviated subplot involving the main character becoming (of course) a midwife and herbalist, and her father having his way with the livestock,I couldn't find any sort of a plot at all.
