This book was a beautiful exploration of girlhood, womanhood, and sisterhood. To delve into the untold stories felt like being let in on a secret. I picked this up in a op shop for $2 because I liked the cover, and reading this book gave me more than I could have hoped. I laughed, I cried, I reflected on my own life while reading The Red Tent. If you want to find yourself intwined with the stories of women and the spanning of connection across time, this book will be perfect.

The Red Tent is a beautiful read for anyone looking to be crushed but also uplifted. Despite not being a woman, I have learnt so much about womanhood from this book. Specifically,  I now have a deeper understanding of how their stories have been oppressed throughout history. 
I hope one day to feel the contentment she found.

This book feels very slice of life. I like that because it's a culture very different from my own.
