Noah built an ark, but this story has never been told….
Noah’s Wife is Na’amah, a beautiful young girl with Asperger Syndrome who wishes only to be a shepherdess on her beloved hills in ancient Turkey, a desire shattered by the hatred of her powerful brother, the love of two men, and a looming disaster that threatens her world.
Na’amah tells her story and sees the world through the unique lens of a condition known today as a high-functioning form of autism. Her savant abilities and penchant to speak truth forces her down a dangerous path in an age of change--a time of challenge to the goddess' ancient ways, when cultures clash and the earth itself is unstable. When foreign raiders kidnap Na’amah, her journey to escape and return home becomes an attempt to save her people from the disaster only she knows is coming.
The Biblical account of Noah's wife only gives us a nameless woman who bears Noah's children and is with him in the ark. T.K. Thorne, an award winning author, has filled in the story with her imagination based on geological and archeological evidence of a great flood in the Black Sea region 7,000 years ago.

A Peek Inside...
My name, Na’amah, means pleasant or beautiful.I am not always pleasant, but I am beautiful.Perhaps that is why I am trundled atop this beast like a roll of skins for market and surrounded by grim-faced men.If my captors had bothered to ask me, I would have told them that their prize is of questionable value because my mind is damaged....
