{"product_id":"ahoti-a-story-of-tamar-a-novel","title":"Ahoti: A Story of Tamar: A Novel","description":"WINNER – Illumination Book Award\nSILVER MEDAL WINNER – IBPA Book Award – Audiobook\nFINALIST – Foreword INDIES Book of the Year\n\n\"A welcome and gripping portrait of the unsung courage of a biblical heroine.”―Publishers Weekly\n\nA masterful retelling of Tamar's story of redemption, faith, healing, and justice\n\"As an author of biblical fiction, I know the amount of research and work that goes into crafting a story like this. Miriam Feinberg Vamosh and Eva Marie Everson comprise the perfect team.\" ―Jerry B. Jenkins, THE CHOSEN series\nRavaged by one brother, silenced and betrayed by another, and abandoned by her father King David, Tamar―once beloved daughter of the king of Israel, and healer of the court―suddenly finds herself in exile, fleeing for her life. But the story continues where the scriptures end: a dangerous journey and tenacious pursuit of her true identity and calling brings her full circle, to her rightful place in the kingdom.\nEnthusiasts of Biblical Fiction will love Ahoti. Ahoti brings to life the Old Testament story of the biblical princess Tamar, the daughter of David, King of Israel.\nThe familiar Bible story ends with Tamar living “desolate” (2 Samuel 13:20), but master storytellers Miriam Feinberg Vamosh and Eva Marie Everson take readers beyond this sorrowful ending to a horizon of hope, thanks to their brilliant adaptation of an ancient anonymous manuscript, purportedly written by Gad the Seer (1 Chronicles 29:29), which was discovered in India in the early 18th century. Beyond the biblical text, this manuscript provides a surprising conclusion, which has powerful modern-day significance.\nRich with cultural, biblical, and historic detail, and spiritually compelling, Ahoti will inspire readers to overcome humiliation, pain, betrayal, and bitterness, to embrace a life of purpose.\n\n\"Over the course of Everson and Vamosh's novel, Tamar realizes her own strength and self-worth, exploring her womanhood, spirituality, ambitions, and the realities of her world. She also learns to value the wisdom and care of others as she provides care of her own. Tamar’s growth over the course of her journey is compelling and insightful, and her story will resonate with readers who enjoy women-focused historical fiction.” ―Booklist\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1640608982\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1640608982.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Vamosh, Miriam Feinberg|Everson, Eva Marie\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
