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.
In exhilarating and lucid prose, Grossman reveals the journey of a single, lonely and tortured soul who never found a true home in the world, who was uncomfortable in his very body and who, some might say, was the precursor of today's suicide bombers.

"Extraordinary, ground-breaking, empowering."
"His journey takes us to the heart of ourselves, in this millennia-old creation of a man like Oedipus whose tragedy was that his own predestined story was too big for his soul to bear." (The Independent)
"One of contemporary literature's most versatile and absorbing writers." (San Francisco Chronicle)
"A writer of passionate honest, unafraid to ask terrible questions"

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.
