Sena Jeter Naslund is the author of Ahab’s Wife and five other novels. Her latest, Adam & Eve, comes out today.

Will you read this novel?
Also in BookPage: Read a blog post about Adam & Eve; read our review of Ahab’s Wife, a behind the book on Four Spirits and a review of Abundance.
I’m really intrigued by this book – looking forward to picking up a copy!
I’ve read both Ahab’s Wife and Abundance, and look forward to Adam and Eve. Should be a wonderful reading experience.
Ordinarily if I saw this book, I wouldnt think to check it out, but after seeing Naslund’s interview so graciously offered by bookpage, I will look more carefully into it at my bookstore. As always, thanks for the inspiration!
