Carmen Boullosa presents The Book of Eve, with Peter Constantine

  • P&T Knitwear Books & Podcasts 180 Orchard Street New York, NY, 10002 United States (map)

P&T Knitwear is pleased to welcome Carmen Boullosa to celebrate her new novel, The Book of Eve, with a talk, audience Q&A, and book signing. In brilliant prose, Carmen Boullosa offers "a stirring challenge to an age-old narrative" (Publishers Weekly), a twist 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. 

Carmen will be joined in conversation by Peter Constantine, Professor of Translation Studies at the University of Connecticut and the publisher of World Poetry Books. After the talk, Carmen will sign copies of her book.
