About this audiobook

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.

Fools: I is a metaphor!! It is about Clemens and Olivia, not Adam and Eve! It was written after Clemens' wife Olivia died. He took the death very hard. Clemens wrote "Diaries" And "Letters From the Earth" after her death. Her death was a cudgel, a truncheon blow. Clemens was righteously pissed off at God and Ma and the rest of the universe at the time. Hopefully the tenderness comes across. If not, listen more closely.

Adam should have asked God for a "do over" AFTER Eve ATE the forbidden fruit! And so, female nature, and feminism was born! Feminism was born with Eve. #METOO, and "divorce rape" is feminism's legacy. MGTOWS - ARE LEADING THE WAY OUT OF EVE'S SIN!

Adam and Eve were nothing like this. God created them, she had to be much more beautiful!!! And they didn't have belly buttons, they were not BIRTHED, so no umbilical cord!!!!! PAY ATTENTION, oh yeah, this is fictional. It probably has no FACTS, but it is very REAL!!!
