About this deal

Inspired by the Voynich Manuscript, an illustrated manuscript that has baffled scholars for centuries, written in an unknown language and thought to have been created at some point during the 15th or 16th century, Meg Clothier has presented a beautifully thrilling and mysterious novel. El libro nos transporta a un convento en la Italia medieval en donde aparecen dos extranjeras heridas que portan un libro. When they arrived there Adam cried to himself and said to Eve, "Look at this cave that is to be our prison in this world, and a place of punishment!

Her work over the last six years has focused on law and policy governing sexual and reproductive health, rights, and technologies. Bohannon offers a refreshing and lively corrective to a story that has focused mainly on male evolution. and Esquire and in the late 1960s designed album covers for the Byrds, Buffalo Springfield, and Linda Ronstadt.But when our ancestors Adam and Eve left the garden, they trod the ground under their feet, and did not knowing where they were going. Existing as a woman in our increasingly atomized world can be isolating in ways that are hard to even identify. Whether it's the intrigue of what the book represents or the fact she's been 'chosen' she then has a battle on her hands as others are after this book, but why?

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. A Romanian immigrant (Daniel Lavoie) uses good food, good humor and good conversation to break down the walls around a reclusive woman's (Claire Bloom) heart. The writing is exquisite and the narration good, but the book has an intricate plot and I wanted the ability to flick back and check details as I worked through the novel. La verdad que una pena porque creo que la idea es muy buena, pero el desarrollo no consigue sacarle partido, en mi opinión. Tense and claustrophobic, with a creeping sense of dread that builds throughout the story, The Book of Eve is a beautifully written , utterly enthralling read .Then God in his mercy for Adam who was made after his own image and likeness, explained to him that these were 5,500 years, and how one would then come and save him and his descendants.
