The Tower of Babel is a well-known story from the Jewish scriptures that relates the story of how men angered God and as a result the confusion of human languages was brought into being. Yet what if the story was told by ancient women? How would the story differ? This is an attempt to re-imagine the story from a female perspective. This is neither history nor theology. This is humour with a political edge.
The book is dedicated to the memory of crusading immigration lawyer Sonia Burgess, whose murder in 2010 caused this project to be abandoned after this short novel had already been completed.
