- More about I Am Not Your Eve
I Am Not Your Eve is a novel that tells the story of Teha amana, a Tahitian muse and child-bride to Paul Gauguin, and explores the origins of Polynesia before French colonists brought the Christian faith.

I Am Not Your Eve is a captivating tale that revolves around Teha amana, a Tahitian muse and child-bride to the renowned painter Paul Gauguin. Through her eyes, we witness Gauguin's artistic journey as he creates one of his most significant masterpieces, The Spirit of the Dead Keeps Watch. Teha amana's thoughts intertwine with the painting, and her voice echoes through the pages, resonating with the island's rich history and mythology.
As Teha amana narrates her story, other voices of the island emerge, including the goddess Hina, the lizard watching from the eaves, and Gauguin's mask of Teha amana carved from a tree. The novel weaves together the origin myths that shaped Polynesia before the arrival of French colonists and brings to life the other hemisphere of Gauguin's life through the distant diary entries of his daughter Aline, who shares the same age as Gauguin's new wife.
I Am Not Your Eve is a novel that grants Teha amana a voice, allowing her to travel with the myths and legends of the island, spanning history and demanding to be heard. It is a testament to the enduring power of storytelling and the ability of art to transcend time and space.
