商品簡介
A controversial national best seller upon its initial publication, The Book of J is an audacious work of literary restoration revealing one of the great narratives of all times and unveiling its mysterious author. Scholars agree that the first strand in Genesis, Exodus, and Numbers was written by an author whom they call J, who lived in the tenth century before Christ. In The Book of J, accompanying David Rosenberg's translation, Harold Bloom argues that J was a woman - very likely a woman of the royal house at King Solomon's court - and a writer of the stature of Homer, Shakespeare, and Tolstoy.
