She yearns for a pursuit worthy of her life, but finds no outlet for her considerable talents. Defying the expectations placed on women, she engages in furtive scholarly pursuits and writes secret narratives about neglected and silenced women. When she meets the eighteen-year-old Jesus, each is drawn to and enriched by the other's spiritual and philosophical ideas. He becomes a floodgate for her intellect, but also the awakener of her heart. Their marriage unfolds with love and conflict, humor and pathos in Nazareth, where Ana makes a home with Jesus, his brothers, James and Simon, and their mother, Mary. Here, Ana's pent-up longings intensify amid the turbulent resistance to the Roman occupation of Israel, partially led by her charismatic adopted brother, Judas. She is sustained by her indomitable aunt Yaltha, who is searching for her long-lost daughter, as well as by other women, including her friend Tabitha, who is sold into slavery after she was raped, and Phasaelis, the shrewd wife of Herod Antipas. Ana's impetuous streak occasionally invites danger. When one such foray forces her to flee Nazareth for her safety shortly before Jesus's public ministry begins, she makes her way with Yaltha to Alexandria, where she eventually finds refuge and purpose in unexpected surroundings." -- $c Provided by publisher. 600 00 $a Jesus Christ $x Family $v Fiction. 600 07 $a Jesus Christ. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00040116 648 7 $a To 70 $2 fast 650 0 $a Women authors $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Self-realization in women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Feminism $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Courage $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Man-woman relationships $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Courage. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00881609 650 7 $a Families. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01728849 650 7 $a Feminism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922671 650 7 $a Man-woman relationships. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01007080 650 7 $a Self-realization in women. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01111914 650 7 $a Women authors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01177198 651 0 $a Palestine $x History $y To 70 A.D. $v Fiction. 651 7 $a Middle East $z Palestine. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01207534 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012013108.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E78A6F2E68C411EE82CCA71150ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b IWRInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
