El libro de Eva

What if it turns out that everything we know about Paradise happened the other way around? In this novel, it is Eve herself who decides to tell us her version: it was neither created from Adam's rib, nor is it exact that she was expelled from Eden because of that matter of the serpent and the apple, nor is the story of Abel and Cain As they say, neither the Flood nor the Tower of Babel ...Carmen Boullosa gives a carefree twist to the book of Genesis to dismantle the male figure and rebuild the world, the origin of gastronomy, the domestication of animals, the cultivation of the land and pleasure, all through a glance distinctly feminine. From this exploration; sometimes funny, sometimes painful ;, the author reviews the stories that have been transmitted to us and that have helped to cement the absurd idea that women are companions, complement and even accessories to men. Eva's book, feminist and foundational, finally comes to deny her and transgress her.
