This is Mark Twain's imaginative series of diary entries by Adam and Eve. At first, Adam is puzzled by this new arrival, Eve, in the garden, and he is suspicious of her disturbing appetite for fruit. Eve, believing herself to be some sort of experiment, is curious about another experiment in the garden, perhaps some sort of reptile or possibly architecture. Eve gives names to everything, much to Adam's annoyance. He tries to ignore her, so she seeks companionship among the animals particularly with a certain snake. Adam and Eve grow to love each other and, in the end, an elderly Adam is filled with a realization of that love as he stands at Eve's grave.

Casi todo el mundo sabe hoy quien es Mark Twain, pero pocos saben que su verdadero nombre era Samuel Langhorne Clemens y que nació prematuramente en Florida, en el Estado de Missouri, en 1835. A los veinte años, tras haber sido tipógrafo en un pueblo del Mississipi, vagabundeaba ya por el Estado de Nevada en busca de plata, que jamás encontró, y a los 35, era hombre casado y célebre. Inquieto, aventurero y vital en su juventud, en la madurez, no contento con el éxito como escritor, cayó presa del afán de dinero, que le llevó a arruinarse en más de una ocasión y a alejarse de su mujer y de sus hijas. Su vida fue la de un hombre contradictorio, eternamente insatisfecho. Treinta y siete volúmenes ocupa su obra completa, lo cual nos indica lo poco que sabemos del creador de los inefables Tom Sawyer y Huckleberry Finn, compañeros inseparables de nuestra infancia.
