In Lion's Honey, award-winning writer David Grossman takes on one of the most vivid and controversial characters in the Bible. Revisiting Samson's famous battle with the lion, his many women and his betrayal by them all, including the only one he ever loved. Grossman gives us a provocative new take on the story and its climax, Samson's final act of death, brining down a temple on himself and three thousand Philistines.©2006 David Grossman Classics & Allegories Fantasy

Critic reviews

Extraordinary, ground-breaking, empowering.

I came to this book expecting a fictional account of Samson's story but received a contextual account with various suggestions on further meaning. Although interesting it wasn't the book I was looking for. Ideal for someone looking to dig deeper into Samson psychologically.
