Awesome book about Hannah (from the Bible).  Her son was Samuel.  The book is based on facts and, obviously, the author filled in the details.   It's about lust and love and people in a changing time and dedication.  Great history and a quick read (I finished in ONE DAY!)  I think it's the same author as The Red Tent.Hannah and Pninah, once close childhood friends, become rivals for the attention of Elkanah, the man who has married them both. Pninah, passionate and independent, easily bears Elkanah many children, but bitter that he has taken her friend as a second wife, seeks fulfillment with her own secret lover. Hannah, the epitome of goodness and grace, remains completely devoted to her husband, but remains childless for many years, until a promise to God brings her the son she has yearned for.Despite their differences, these two women must learn to live together, protecting their own interests as well as each other’s, while sharing not only the love of their husband, but that of Hannah’s son Samuel, who will become one of the great prophets of the Jewish people.
