Items related to After These Things
Continuing her narration of the story of the Patriarchs in the Book of Genesis, After These Things recounts the relationship between Abraham’s tragic son Isaac and Isaac’s son Jacob. In following the psychological trail of the children of Abraham, the first properly constituted family, we discover all the complexities of love, power, and desire that make them so quintessentially human. Jenny Diski is the author of eight novels and two memoirs: Skating to Antarctica and Stranger on a Train.

Review:
“Diski seizes the story of Jacob and Esau by the throat...she takes the desiccated fragments of those texts and drops them into her own fluid imagination, where they bloom, miraculously, like so many Japanese paper flowers.” —Sunday Telegraph
“A searching narrative of considerable modern passion.” —The Guardian
