Ana is a rebellious young woman a gifted writer with a curious brilliant mind who writes secret narratives about the neglected and silenced women around her. Raised in a wealthy family in Galilee she is sheltered from the brutality of Rome's occupation of Israel. Ana is expected to marry an elderly widower to further her father's ambitions a prospect that horrifies her. A chance encounter with the eighteen-year-old Jesus changes everything: his ideas and his passion are intoxicating. Taking Ana on a journey she could never have imagined THE BOOK OF LONGINGS is a glorious evocation of a time and a place where astounding events unfolded and of one woman's fate when she fights to make her voice heard.
