[Book Spotlight] Noah’s Wife by TK Thorne
Note: This book is for adults only
From the perspective of a young girl with a form of autism now known as Asperger’s, Thorne weaves unique twists into the Biblical story, entwining myth, history, archeological findings and imagination.
Na’amah wishes only to be a shepherdess on her beloved hills in ancient Turkey– a desire shattered by the hatred of her powerful brother and the love of two men. Her savant abilities and penchant to speak truth forces her to walk a dangerous path in an age of change—a time of challenge to the goddess’ ancient ways, when cultures clash and the earth itself is unstable. When foreign raiders kidnap her, Na’amah’s journey to escape and return home becomes an attempt to save her people from the disaster only she knows is coming.
