Judith & Holophernes Paperback – June 28, 2003

Thank you very much. hope to buy you mote titles in the future, happy with the buy.

Riverstone bases this story, at least loosely, on the Old Testament book of Judith - a book not present in some Protestant versions of the Bible. Like so many of those stories, it features seduction, betrayal, and bloody violence, the kind of thing that prim Sunday school teachers generally leave unmentioned, assuming they know these stories at all. A movie based on this passage would earn at least an R rating, though, depending on how it's interpreted.This interpretation goes way past R. Judith and her sidekick Esther (who get an Old Testament book of her own) appear here as curvy, top-heavy, and averse to all clothing. Holophrenes and his army appear equally unclad, which shows an apparent epidemic of priapism among the invaders. Judith's seduction appears in lengthy and lubricious detail, as do other encounters between other women and the soldiers. Sensitive readers, please note: these encounters are not consensual, not gentle, and quite consistent with a scorched-earth style of warfare. Holophernes, as mightiest of the attackers, is given the mightiest of organs to attack with, and all stand in awe of Esther and Judith for surviving its onslaught.Some liberties have been taken in prtraying these libertines. Biblical purists should give it a pass, as anyone who thinks that all religious topics should be approached with decorum. Still, some of that Old Testament stuff is pretty raw, no matter how you read it, and this adults-only book makes the most of it.-- wiredweird
