This collection of poems enters into the lives of 90 women from the Old and New Testaments, women such as Eve, Lot's wife, Zipporah and Miriam. The poet aims to let each woman speak her mind and to lift her from the silence of her life in a patriarchal society.
In quietly dazzling language, Women Clothed with the Sun engages ninety women from the Old and New Testaments, the inconspicuous as well as the more prominent: Eve, Lot's wife, Zipporah, Miriam, Judith, Ruth, Bathsheba, Mary, Elizabeth, Martha, the woman at the well, the wife of Pilate, the women of Jerusalem, and others. Without a feminist axe to grind in the foreground, without pretension or piety, but fearlessly and enthusiastically, Dana Littlepage Smith has imaginatively entered into each woman's life, by turns boldly, delicately, sensuously, intelligently, always skillfully.
