Stephen Greenblatt tells the story of the first man and the first woman - central to all three of the world's monotheistic religions and the object of innumerable representations by painters, sculptors and poets - which was the dominant story of the human race for thousands of years. Much older than Christianity and Islam and older even than any recognisable form of Judaism, it seized the imagination of the Western world from ancient times to the present. From a National Book Award and Pulitzer Prize winning author.
