Viac o knihe

Mark Twain offers a humorous retelling of the Garden of Eden through the diary entries of Adam and Eve. Adam is portrayed as a disinterested figure, resistant to Eve's curiosity and ideas, while Eve is depicted as an inquisitive and adventurous spirit, eager to explore and name the animals. Their contrasting personalities highlight the dynamics of their relationship. The story also features the couple's children, Cain and Abel, who are largely ignored by Adam, emphasizing Eve's role in child-rearing. Twain's narrative cleverly explores themes of curiosity and domestic life.
