“The Ring of Truth: Myths of Sex and Jewelry” explores how rings and circular jewelry link love, sex, power, memory, and identity across global myths, literature, and modern culture. Wendy Doniger traces stories from ancient India and Greece to Shakespeare, Marie Antoinette, Hollywood, and De Beers ads to show how jewelry shapes desire, betrayal, and social status. The book uncovers how signet rings, betrothal rings, and necklaces become symbols of eternal love, sexual control, and the uneasy clash between romance, money, and myth.
