«Diarios de Adán y Eva» is Mark Twain's humorous work, published by Ediciones Obelisco in paperback (64 pages, in Spanish).
The book recreates the Garden of Eden through the diaries of Adam and Eve. Eve names animals and places, discovers fire and feelings such as love or pain, while Adam observes her curiosity bewildered. With irony and humour, Twain turns their coexistence into a reflection on the relationships between men and women and on human nature.
First edition in Spanish of the Magoria collection, published on 6 February 2002, translated by José Ramón Monreal Salvador.
For readers who enjoy humour classics and literary reinterpretations of myths such as that of Eden.
Samuel Langhorne Clemens, known by the pen name Mark Twain, was an American writer, humorist, and essayist. He has been praised as the "greatest humorist the United States has produced", with William Faulkner calling him "the father of American literature". Twain's novels include The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and its sequel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884), with the latter often called the "Great American Novel". He also wrote A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1889) and Pudd'nhead Wilson (1894) and cowrote The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today (1873) with Charles Dudley Warner.
