«Ni de Eva ni de Adán» is the novel by Amélie Nothomb, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (176 pages, in Spanish).
In Tokyo, the narrator learns Japanese while giving French lessons. In a bar she meets Rinri, a young reader who dreams of joining the Order of the Temple, and the relationship between teacher and student turns into a love story. With irony and an anthropological eye, the author portrays a Japan seen from within, but with Western roots.
Originally published in French as «Ni d'Ève ni d'Adam» (2007), it won the Prix de Flore. This Spanish edition belongs to Anagrama's Compactos collection (no. 525).
