Mark Twain: The Diaries of Adam & Eve, Gebunden

Klappentext

"The Diaries of Adam and Eve" is a delightful work by Mark Twain, published posthumously in 1906. It's a collection of two short stories written in diary format, each offering a humorous and imaginative take on the biblical characters of Adam and Eve.
In the first story, "Extracts from Adam's Diary," Adam chronicles his experiences as the first man on Earth, from his initial observations of the world around him to his interactions with various animals and, eventually, the arrival of Eve. Through Adam's witty and often bewildered observations, Twain offers a whimsical portrayal of human nature and the complexities of relationships.
In the second story, "Eve's Diary," Eve takes up the pen and begins her own diary, offering her perspective on the creation of the world, her first encounters with Adam, and her experiences as the first woman. Eve's diary entries are filled with curiosity, wonder, and a deep appreciation for the beauty of nature and the love she shares with Adam.
Together, these two stories provide a charming and humorous exploration of the Adam and Eve myth, as well as a reflection on the nature of humanity, love, and the passage of time. "The Diaries of Adam and Eve" is beloved for its wit, warmth, and imaginative storytelling, and it remains a cherished work in Twain's canon.....
