The Book of Eve

This beautifully-written retelling of the adventures of Adam, Eve and the serpent in the Garden is told from Eve's perspective. Find out what (or rather, who) did the tempting and why resistance to the fruit of the Tree was all but impossible. Follow Eve in the Garden as she learns about the six lessons of love: beauty, sex, sharing, duty, jealousy and sacrifice. Feel what it was like for Adam and Eve to be thrust from their Garden paradise into a shockingly different outside world. And finally, encounter the awful, but all-to-familiar reason behind the brutal slaying of Abel by his brother Cain. The Book of Eve provides one author's response to some of the many questions left unanswered in the brief biblical version of this famous story about humanity's earliest days on Earth.
