亚当与夏娃的故事英文版

I feel sorry for those who have only read Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn in school, for they have had the worst possible introduction to one of the greatest authors in the English language and have missed reading a wide range of satirical and introspective books, essays and stories. Several years ago, I came across a story, “The Diaries of Adam and Eve” in a copy of Charles Neider’s The Complete Short Stories of Mark Twain.

Originally written as two pieces which Twain later expanded, revised and merged together, The Diaries of Adam and Eve purports to be a record of the lives of the first humans. Fine Oaks Press has taken the pieces, added an introduction and afterward and presented them in a handsome hardbound volume with several illustrations throughout. Furthermore, they have released the complete work on tape and CD as well by Betty Buckley and Mandy Patinkin, with Walter Cronkite reading the extra material.
