Eve's Diary, Complete

About the book

"Eve's Diary, Complete" by Mark Twain is a comic short story first published in 1905. Written as the diary of the biblical Eve, the story follows her from creation through her discovery of Eden and her relationship with Adam. Presented as a "translation from the original MS," Eve records her observations with appreciation for beauty and love. The work may have been Twain's posthumous tribute to his wife Olivia, who died in 1904, ending with Adam's tender words at Eve's grave.
