Reading Genesis

Excellent book, she tells/adapts/expounds the story well. Charitable but also frank about people and our constant cycle of error and redemption. A lot of this reinforced notions that I'd heard from the Lord of Spirits podcast, stuff regarding neighboring cultures in the Near East. Her decision to avoid metaphysical topics like capital Substitution and obscure things like the Nephilim left me a tad disappointed, but the way Robinson handles the rest of the story reminds me that it's okay to leave a little mystery.
