The story of Dinah has always intrigued James K. Stewart. Inspired by Anita Diamant's The Red Tent, he delved further into the male bias that states she was raped. The first thing he noticed was that the main character, Dinah, was voiceless. The second was that Shechem was madly in love with Dinah and willing to pay any amount of dowry. Through deceit and treachery, Simeon and Levi plot the merciless slaughter of a village to avenge one man's alleged rape of their sister. You are invited to read the story with the Hebrew verbs correctly translated and judge for yourself.
