So begins the exquisitely written new novel from the No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of The Secret Life of Bees and The Invention of Wings . \u003cbr\u003eAna 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Sue+Monk+Kidd\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eSue Monk Kidd\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sue Monk Kidd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47377488773283,"sku":"9781472232502","price":340.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781472232502_f2d01c28-383c-4f05-a91b-5347a1a48ed4.jpg?v=1776543490","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9781472232502","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
