The Hebrew Bible in Contemporary Fiction and Poetry

This book discusses 20th and 21st century literary retellings of biblical texts, focusing on how fiction and poetry fill the extant narrative gaps present in the often sparse biblical accounts and align the narratives with theological and/or cultural expectations of modern interpreting communities.
