What if everything they ve told us about the Garden of Eden was wrong? Faced with what appears to be an apocryphal manuscript containing ten books and ninety - one parts Eve decides to tell her version of the story of Genesis: she was not created from Adam's rib nor was she expelled for taking the apple from the serpent; the story of Abel and Cain isn't true neither are those of the Flood and the Tower of Babel. In brilliant prose Carmen Boullosa offers a take on the Book of Genesis that dismantles patriarchy and rebuilds our understanding of the world from the origin of gastronomy to the domestication of animals to the cultivation of land and pleasure all through the feminine gaze. Based on this exploration at times both joyful and painful The Book of Eve takes a tour through the stories we ve been told since childhood which have helped to foster (and cement) the absurd idea that woman is the companion complement and even accessory to man opening the door to criminal violence against women. Boullosa refutes this entrenched dangerous perspective in her foundational and brazen feminist novel.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: The Book Of Eve\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Boullosa Carmen\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Deep Vellum Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781646052240\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 252 Pages, Illustrations, Unspecified\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 5\/9\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Fiction In Translation","brand":"Boullosa Carmen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49622566043953,"sku":"IN-G-9781646052240","price":15.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781646052240.jpg?v=1724721140","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781646052240-the-book-of-eve","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
