À propos de cet e-book
A “highly entertaining” (USA Today) debut novel that presents a powerful new twist on the story of creation’s first family, combining the magical, lush storytelling of Madeline Miller’s Circe with biblical tradition and recorded history
“Action-packed . . . Raises spiritual questions about free will, creation, and the human relationship with God.”—Associated Press
At once intimate and universal, timely and timeless, this unique work of fiction introduces Eve in a way religion and myth have never allowed. Here is Eve brought to life, her story boldly reimagined before and after her banishment from Eden, her complex marriage to Adam, her troubled relationship with her daughters, and the tragedy that would overcome her sons Cain and Abel.
From a woman’s first awakening to a mother’s innermost hopes and fears, from moments of exquisite tenderness to a climax of shocking violence, Eve explores the very essence of love, womanhood, faith, and humanity.
