Joy Kogawa, internationally celebrated author of Obasan and The Rain Ascends, offers a feminist version of the biblical story of Lilith, the "first Eve." Illustrated by Lilian Broca, A Song of Lilith combines poetry and artwork in a powerful ode to truth, transformation, and homecoming.
The Songs of Lilith is an epic poem that describes the journey of Leah, a young women who falls asleep and wakes up in the Kingdom of Hell. As she descents, she meets Lilith, who was the first woman on Earth and Adam's first wife in the Garden of Eden. Here, Lilith is the Queen of Hell, who serves as Leah's guide through Hell's seven Kingdoms, each one ruled by a different Queen. At the end of Leah's journey, she meets the Devil, who gives her an unexpected gift. The Hell described here is not a physical place, and certainly not the eerie underworld of the Bible or any other religious book, but rather a spiritual place where the human mind dwells at certain perilous times we all find ourselves in. By examining seven Kingdoms, each one associated with a different Deadly Sin, the author explores the darker side of the human psyche, inviting readers to draw comparisons with their own private Hells.
In this novel by the father of fantasy literature, a man travels through time to meet Adam and Eve and to explore humanity's fall from grace and ultimate redemption.
Old rabbanic tradition teaches that Eve was not Adam's first wife, rather a mysterious woman named Lilith who was thrown out of Eden before Adam and Eve were. This is a lyrical telling of that legend and what happens to Lilith as she encounters various demons outside the garden and what she says and does to Adam and Eve once they too are thrown out of the Garden of Eden. Now in larger print!
The reclaiming of the divine feminine has commenced! Song of Lilith bows to the light, the dark, and all in between with its outpourings of sacred sacrifice, sexual empowerment, and inner goddess awakening. Through times of old and times of new, iterations of Lilith have lived on. Whether it's raw communion with the Divine, speaking out against patriarchal transgressions, or living in servitude of the Goddess, there is no path more noble or transformative. Via vivid poetic storytelling imbued with sensuous narration, Andrew Chiniche has once again brought unbridled magick to the forefront during a time when the world needs it most.
The author's quest in search of McLachlan's roots, tours through the underside of the music business world, discovering the ways of making a star, morbid tales of a possessed fan. Also explores the musical and philosophical influences shaping the alternative culture movement known as Lilith Fair.
The story of Lilith has never been told before until now... Predating Eve, Lilith, the first woman ever created, was thrown out of the Garden of Eden because she wouldn't submit to God or man. Later Lilith sold her soul to Lucifer for revenge. Now that centuries have passed, she had returned to Earth and there will be hell to pay! Complicating matters is Lilith's "son" Zoon, a half human/half demon hybrid, whose loyalties will be tested. Will he join Lilith and aid in her destruction of mankind? Or will he side with his friends in their seemingly vain attempt to stop her?
From the author of the National Book Award finalist Black Leopard, Red Wolf and the WINNER of the 2015 Man Booker Prize for A Brief History of Seven Killings "An undeniable success.” — The New York Times Book Review A true triumph of voice and storytelling, The Book of Night Women rings with both profound authenticity and a distinctly contemporary energy. It is the story of Lilith, born into slavery on a Jamaican sugar plantation at the end of the eighteenth century. Even at her birth, the slave women around her recognize a dark power that they- and she-will come to both revere and fear. The Night Women, as they call themselves, have long been plotting a slave revolt, and as Lilith comes of age they see her as the key to their plans. But when she begins to understand her own feelings, desires, and identity, Lilith starts to push at the edges of what is imaginable for the life of a slave woman, and risks becoming the conspiracy's weak link. But the real revelation of the book-the secret to the stirring imagery and insistent prose-is Marlon James himself, a young writer at once breathtakingly daring and wholly in command of his craft.
