Noah's Wife a novel in progress (Update: Just completed!) by T.K. Thorne
“I am Na’amah. My name means beautiful, which I am.Such a claim might be vanity in another, but I speak only truths because my mind is damaged, and lies confuse me.” The story of a great flood is part of the lore of many ancient civilizations, including the Bible/Torah.Noah’s wife is given only brief mention in the Genesis account, though scholars believe she was identified in a small, passing paragraph giving the lineage of a woman named Na’amah.On the archeology side, Paul Ballard, the adventurer/scientist who discovered the Titanic, recently dated a great flood in the Black Sea region at approximately 5500 BCE and found evidence of an ancient civilization beneath that body of water.
This is the setting for the epic story of Na’amah, a beautiful young girl who sees the world through the unique lens of Asperger’s Syndrome, a high-functioning form of autism, and becomes the wife of Noah, the boat-maker.In NOAH’S WIFE, Noah builds an ark, but not for the reason given in the traditional Biblical rendition. It is his wife, Na’amah, who emerges from obscurity to become the real catalyst in the enduring story about a flood that wiped out much of early civilization.
