Synopsis
"This thriller is rich in brilliant discourses on religion, fanaticism, the meaning of ancient cave art, the speculative future, and love." -- Library Journal Sena Jeter Naslund, the New York Times bestselling author of Ahab's Wife, Four Spirits, and Abundance explores both the dark nature of fundamentalism and the brightness of true faith in her dazzling novel, Adam & Eve. A provocative, eloquent, and deeply compelling story of a woman caught between two warring worlds--science and religion-- Adam & Eve raises timely questions about identity, innocence, and sin, and represents a new literary high-water mark for New York Times Notable author and Harper Lee Award-winner Naslund., Entrusted with her late husband's discovery of extraterrestrial life and enlisted by her dead husband's friend, anthropologist Pierre Saad, to help him smuggle a newly discovered artifact out of Egypt--an ancient codex concerning the human authorship of the Book of Genesis--Lucy Bergmann crash lands her plane on a slip of land between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in the Middle East. Burned in the crash landing, she is rescued by Adam, a delusional American soldier whose search for both spiritual and carnal knowledge has led to madness

- l***e (700)- Évaluations laissées par l'acheteur.Dernier moisAchat vérifiéThe seller sent me the wrong item by mistake and I received a smaller beaded rosary instead of the larger beads that I had ordered. That made me so sad. But then the seller did the right thing and sent me a refund and then told me to keep the smaller rosary anyway even though it was not the rosary that I had ordered. Thank you so much!
- n***- (1020)- Évaluations laissées par l'acheteur.6 derniers moisAchat vérifiéItem as described, condition excellent, reasonable price, well packed, arrived soon. AOK. It's too soon to rate any book when it's just arrived, so all books get 3 stars. This is another BS maneuver by eBay. I don't do numerical ratings in cases where any numerical ratings are automatically imposed by eBay, as it's unfair to the buyer. You should complain to eBay, as your ratings would have been quite high.
