Si'Wren of the Patriarchs "Si'Wren of the Patriarchs" by Roland Cheney is a historical novel likely written in the late 20th century. It explores the life of Si'Wren, a young slave girl in a morally corrupt and beautiful world shaped by ancient traditions and beliefs. The narrative promises a rich tapestry of themes including the struggle against injustice, the search for identity, and the collision of faith in an unseen God. The beginning of the story introduces Si'Wren as she diligently works in the spice tent of her master, Rababull. A delicate balance is presented between her innocent aspirations and the harsh realities of her world, dominated by patriarchal oppression and the threat of violence. The novel sets up her relationships with other characters, such as her companion Nelatha and the terrifying presence of Master Rababull, revealing the treacherous dynamics in the household. Si'Wren's musings on faith, beauty, and her dreams of a better life against the backdrop of a cruel and unjust society create an engaging and thought-provoking atmosphere right from the start.
