1st Edition. Hardcover. Jacobson, Dan. THE RAPE OF TAMAR. New York: Macmillan, 1970. 8vo., 224pp., smooth black cloth, gilt. A fine fresh copy in like dustwrapper, mildly faded at the spine. "The novel, as its narrator exclaims, is indeed melodrama. For all its seemingly lurid ingredients, - incest, rape, murder - it is outrageously funny. It is a triumph of the imagination. The story of the rape of King David's daughter by her brother Amnon, and the chain of violent events that inevitably followed. . ."
