Oh my God (or should I say Goddess?), Jezebel!!! Another powerful woman’s story reclaimed from the Judeo-Christian patriarchy that demonized her. Megan Barnard has woven a story of Jezebel’s entire life—from birth to death—in a way that is compulsively readable, incredibly empowering, and absolutely comparable to Circe. Sold in marriage to a foreign prince, Jezebel must leave her beloved home, but not without her beloved goddess. A woman made to be remembered, the Queen of Israel screams off the page. Read this and know that Jezebel did not go down without a fight.
