David Korban is a PhD student of archeology following in the footsteps of his famous father. David is invited to accompany an expedition led by his father to recover the long-lost Ark of Noah and return it to the states where an unusual museum is currently under construction; one backed by big money and with political overtones. The Mountain of Ararat is called Agri Dagh or "Mountain of Pain" by the local Armenian community whose history is richly intertwined in the Ark's history. Several locals are used by the recovery team as guides and David becomes close to two of them. The mountain scenes are exciting and breath-taking, the story full of plot turns and twists. The story of a worldwide flood permeates all of the peoples of the earth regardless of their backgrounds. Could the story really be true? If David, his father and the recovery team can get the Ark back to the states, it could change the way the world views much of history and the origins of humankind.

In the tradition of Daniel Wallace’s Big Fish and Eowyn Ivey’s The Snow Child, a gorgeously written and fable-like novel recasting Noah’s Ark as a story of relationships, courage, resilience, and hope. “Variously romantic, symbolic, philosophical, feminist, and fanciful, this is an atmospheric tale that meanders to a sweetly rousing conclusion. . . . Forget the ark, forget the patriarch. It's the women who tend to triumph in this modern take on an Old Testament parable.” – Kirkus Reviews In loving Noah, his wife never imagined she’d end up in this gray and wet little town where it’s been raining for as long as anyone can remember. Newly appointed as pastor, Noah is determined to bring the eccentric townspeople back to the church, but the members of his congregation only want to keep their homes afloat. As the water swallows up the houses, the renowned zoo, and the single highway out of town, Noah, his wife, and their new neighbors must confront not only the savage forces of nature but also the fragile ties that bind them to one another. Poignant and whimsical, playful and wise, Noah’s Wife challenges our expectations of love, commitment, and redemption. By reimagining this classic story in a new and modern light, the novel asks: how do we know when to stay and when it’s time to go?

"A servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren." So reads Noah's curse on his son Ham, and all his descendants, in Genesis 9:25. Over centuries of interpretation, Ham came to be identified as the ancestor of black Africans, and Noah's curse to be seen as biblical justification for American slavery and segregation. Examining the history of the American interpretation of Noah's curse, this book begins with an overview of the prior history of the reception of this scripture and then turns to the distinctive and creative ways in which the curse was appropriated by American pro-slavery and pro-segregation interpreters.

Illustrations accompany the Biblical text telling how Noah obeyed God's command to build an ark in order to survive the great flood.
