Binah is a compelling work of literary fiction that follows its protagonist, Binah, a woman in her middle years navigating the aftermath of her husband Mack’s death after twenty-six years of a complicated marriage. Set in a rural mountain home surrounded by woodland, the novel opens the morning after Mack’s funeral, as Binah confronts not just grief but the quiet devastation of a life she must now reclaim as her own.Drawing on the ancient wisdom of three goddess figurines - Aset, Hathor, and Artemis - that she has kept for years on a shelf, and guided by the spirited love of her sister Seba, Binah begins a profound inward journey. Her awakening deepens when she befriends elderly neighbor Mr. Litke, who shares a remarkable true confession: he secretly helped manufacture components for the atomic bomb during World War II. His story of secrecy, duty, and moral reckoning becomes a mirror for Binah’s own unspoken truths.Throughout the novel, the narrative voice alternates between Binah’s earthly perspective and an omniscient, lyrical ’inner whispering’ - a divine, knowing voice that sees her with fierce tenderness. Old grief, buried memories, and long-silenced creative desires surface one by one, until Binah must finally make the essential choice: keep setting herself aside, or pick up the pen and become the author of her own life.Binah is a luminous, spiritual novel about feminine awakening - tender, courageous, and alive. It weaves mysticism, generational secrets, and the fierce love between women and friends who carry the world’s eternal wisdom in their very hearts.
