In Torgny Lindgren's novel, Bathsheba is transformed from a mere episodic figure in the Bible into a central character. We encounter an ambitious woman who skillfully asserts her plans and intentions, evolving from an ordinary mistress into a true and singular queen. Through her journey, Lindgren challenges the Old Testament philosophy of unchanging subservience to God, expressing a belief in human will and its capacity to influence the course of life and the world.
