The Songs of Lilith: A Tree of Poems - Paperback

by A. J. Saken (Illustrator), A. J. Saken (Author)

The Songs of Lilith is a tale that describes the journey of Leah, a young woman who falls asleep and wakes up in the Kingdom of Hell. As she descends, she meets Lilith, who was the first woman on Earth and Adam's first wife in the Garden of Eden. Here, Lilith is the Queen of Hell, who serves as Leah's guide through Hell's seven Kingdoms, each ruled by a different Queen. At the end of Leah's journey, she meets the Devil, who gives her an unexpected gift. The Hell described here is not a physical place, but rather a spiritual place where the human mind dwells at certain perilous times we all find ourselves in. By examining seven Kingdoms, each one associated with a different Deadly Sin, the author explores the darker side of the human psyche, inviting readers to draw comparisons with their own private Hells.
