Who Gave Who the Apple?: A Woman’s View of Creation (English Edition)

Imagine an earth created and ruled by a woman. Not of the “stand by your man” ilk, but a dyed in the wool, thrice-divorced misandrist, bent on finding Mr. Right. Hers is a world of black and white (with shades of grey) boasting but one true color – red – earmarked solely for lipstick and nail polish. Who Gave Who the Apple? A Woman’s View of Creation is a comical and satirical odyssey parodying the cornucopia of male and female foibles (O.K., mostly female) – all taking place in the human and marital reformatory training ground of the Garden of Eden. Fusing humor with chutzpah to rewrite the Biblical account of creation, the book’s 2,200 words grace 125 pages, adorned by 120 artistic creations, illustrations and bastardizations, antagonizing artists, frazzling feminists and shoving it to chauvinists while burlesquing Michelangelo, Rodin, Venus de Milo, Botticelli and Shakespeare, et al. Learn why the snake dumped Eve, telling Adam he could have her; why Eve rebuffed Adam’s overtures, telling him it’s not like he’s the only guy in town; why Adam was perplexed confronted by female logic when Eve told him she wants to be a career woman because “who will ever hear of me if all I do is stay home and have babies?” and why Gadya donned her special four-inch high-heeled chartreuse pink spiked stilettoes with sequins to boot Adam from the Garden.
