My personal view is that the gift of Eve (Havah) to humanity ranks right up there with that of the Christ. Whether literal or figurative, the so-called Fall brought the advent of Free Will, without which Salvation (i.e., the use of Free Will for At-One-Ment with the Divine) would be meaningless.
With that in mind, I eagerly anticipate the release of Tosca Lee's new novel in Fall 2008.
Few people could take the foundation of the modern banking system or the commodities markets, weave about them a tale of suspense, and make it interesting. David Liss has done just this in his novels, and I look forward to the upcoming release of his latest novel.
