Lifetime’s The Red Tent

It’s a great next few days for Anita Diamant. Lifetime will air a miniseries adaptation of her beloved novel and best-selling novel The Red Tent this Sunday, December 7 and Monday, December 8.It’s a very good miniseries with an all-star cast including Minnie Driver [About a Boy, Beyond the Lights, Good Will Hunting], Debra Winger [An Officer and a Gentleman, Terms of Endearment], Iain Glen [Game of Thrones], Monica Baccarin [Gotham, Homeland] and Rebecca Ferguson [The White Queen] as Dinah.

Tuesday December 9 is the release date for Diamant’s lates novel The Boston Girl, a wonderful work of historical fiction that focuses on a savvy, spunky feminist heroine from the early 1900s and beyond. I’m halfway through and will publish a review before the release date. I adore it so far.
