Overview
Hush now! We are about to embark on a journey back in time...right back to the Creation Story and the making of Isha (woman). Do not interrupt me questions just yet. Gifted with a story about the first grandmother, we must open our hearts, humble and quiet, to receive the lessons she would like us to learn. Let's follow her ancient path to a better future.
Description

Isha: She Will Be Called, is the first installation in a series of books about women, for women, and by women. An eclectic collection of exposé, storytelling, illustration, and creative writing, it celebrates the making of the first woman, Isha, also known as Eve. Isha seeks to answer questions such as: "Why was Isha made?" "What, if anything went wrong?" "Is there any hope of restoration?" and "How does her story intersect with mine?" Not a typical resurrection of tired, old stereotypes, Isha: She Will Be Called encourages us to read some old stories differently, stimulating the response to rethink how we relate to the Creator, ourselves and one another.
