Sarah (2000) is a novel by Orson Scott Card.

Abstract

Book One of the series (Women of Genesis).

"From bestselling author Orson Scott Card comes a vivid and imaginative portrayal of the biblical Sarah, Abraham's loyal wife and Isaac's loving mother. Forced finally to share her husband after a lifetime of devotion, rebuked by the Lord for her unbelief, and grappling with fears that her beloved Isaac will be displaced by Hagar's Ishmael, Sarah is nonetheless a triumphant figure. Covering the events recorded in Genesis up to the birth of Isaac and Sarah's confrontation with Hagar, this first of a series of novels on biblical women is an epic tale of loyalty and resilience before God and before Abraham."--Publisher's description.
