註釋
"Miriam is one of four women whose stories are woven together in Mersereaus's narrative poems. Another is the daughter of Jephthah who is sacrificed by her father in the story found in the book of Judges. In Timbrel, she is named Bathsheva, after a central figure in the story of King David. Talitha, Jairus' daughter from the New Testament, becomes a symbol of reincarnation. Devorah, the fourth character, plays the tambourine in an Appalachian snake-handling church. These linked verse poems explore the theme of gender equality."--Publisher's webpage.
