✦ Synopsis


β€œIngenious.”— Vogue

β€œ Infinity in the Palm of Her Hand takes on nothing less than the creation myth of Western culture.”—Salman Rushdie

The winner of the prestigious 2008 Biblioteca Breve Prizeβ€”joining such renowned Latin American luminaries as Mario Vargas Llosa and Carlos Fuentesβ€”acclaimed poet and novelist Gioconda Belli’s Infinity in the Palm of Her Hand is a wholly creative and original re-imagining of the story of Adam and Eve and original sin. In a brilliant translation by Margaret Sayers Peyden, this remarkable new look at the Book of Genesis will appeal to readers of the novels of Isabel Allende, Anne Rice’s Jesus Chronicles , and to all lovers of great imaginative literature.
