Summary:In this feminist retelling of ancient creation myths, "Lilith and Adam are equal and happy in the Garden of Eden--until Adam decides Lilith should submit to his will and lie beneath him. She refuses--and is banished forever from Paradise. Demonized and sidelined, Lilith watches in fury as God creates Eve, the woman who accepts her submission. But Lilith has a secret: she has already tasted the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge. Endowed with wisdom, she knows why Asherah--God's wife and equal, the Queen of Heaven--is missing. Lilith has a plan: she will rescue Eve, find Asherah, restore balance to the world, and regain her rightful place in Paradise"--
