"Essays of considerable literary erudition and sophistication that... dislodge dull stereotypes to enable both women and men readers to see the Bible with fresh eyes."--Los Angeles Times Book Review
As the one work that has held moral and religious sway over the Judeo-Christian tradition for thousands of years, the Bible is unsurpassed in world literature. For women, its meaning is particularly complex; traditionally, the Bible has been used to keep women in their place, but it has also been a book of enduring inspiration. Out of the Garden marks a new stage in women's relations to the Bible: this is the first collection of essays in which women read and respond to the Bible out of pleasure and curiosity--free to explore what is really relevant to women's lives.
Drawing on their own experiences and interests, Louise Erdrich, Cynthia Ozick, Fay Weldon, Phyllis Trible, Rebecca Goldstein, June Jordan, Ursula K. Le Guin, and twenty-one other writers boldly, imaginatively--and sometimes reproachfully--address the Old Testament stories, characters, and poetry that mean the most to them. Thoughtful, challenging, and playful, these beautifully written essays explore the Bible in fresh new ways. Out of the Garden reclaims the Bible for women and shows readers that the Bible is a source we can return to again and again.
"A many-splendored achievement...This grand collection is a bold revitalization of our relation to our tradition. It offers the reader the gorgeously varied company of strongly delineated temperaments as they take on the compelling, threatening figures of our imaginative forebears."
--Harold Bloom

Comfortable, Breathable, and Stylish Polo
Color: White, Size: Large, Color: White, Size: Large
I’ve been very happy with this polo shirt. The fabric feels lightweight, soft, and stretchy, making it extremely comfortable to wear throughout the day. The mesh texture provides excellent breathability, and the moisture-wicking material does a great job of keeping you cool and dry in warm weather.
The quarter-zip collar gives the shirt a modern, sporty look that stands out from a traditional button polo. It also allows you to unzip it a bit for extra airflow when needed. The fit is true to size with a clean athletic cut that looks sharp without feeling too tight or restrictive.
The white color is slightly see-through in bright light, so that’s something to keep in mind. It’s not overly transparent, but it can be noticeable depending on what you wear underneath.
One of the things I like most is how versatile this shirt is. It works perfectly for golf, but it also looks great for casual outings, travel, or even business-casual settings. The stretchy material moves comfortably with your body and never feels stiff.
The overall quality is very good. The stitching is clean, the zipper feels sturdy, and the shirt has held up well after several washes. It has not shrunk, lost its shape, or shown any fading, which is always a good sign.
It also comes out of the wash looking smooth with very few wrinkles, so it’s easy to care for and convenient if you travel often.
For the price, this is an excellent value. It offers a great combination of comfort, performance, and style, and it feels like a much more expensive shirt. I would definitely buy more colors.

Deep black and crisp white, this collar really pops.
Color: Black, Size: XX-Large, Color: Black, Size: XX-Large
I love this shirt. The fabric is hard to describe, but it’s very comfortable, cool, and soft. If you’re looking for something highly breathable, this is it.
The quality is well made, and the zipper is great. I’m not worried about it splitting or the zipper coming off. It’s fantastic, very comfortable, and fits me really well, even though I’m over 6 feet tall. The value for the money is great.
I’ve already mentioned how soft it feels, and the appearance is great too. That white collar really pops against the crisp dark black. I know the picture doesn’t capture it well and looks a bit washed out, but in person the black is very black and the white is crisp white, exactly as shown in the listing photos.

Extremely comfortable stylish shoe
Size: 9.5, Color: Ch British Tan
Very comfortable and stylish shoe that works well for casual or dress. Sizing is as expected. They do tend to feel a bit warm, so might be best for cooler weather.
