It paints a very humanistic and humerous, >and affectionate picture of life in the garden. Actually, (as I recall), in my copy of the Short Stories of Mark Twain there are two stories. The Diary of Adam and the The Diary of Eve. The two stories tell things from the two viewpoints. (Both are quite amusing.) For a youth group some years ago we borrowed a copy of a "Clay-Mation" film "The Diary of Adam and Eve". Well, (as they say), "it's a hoot!", and still it is quite touching. (Favorite scenes include, Adam repeatedly going over the falls, [for fun], and Eve putting signs up everywhere in the garden.) (Compare these tales with Twain's complaints about all the signage at Niagra Falls in his story about visiting that fare sight.) Tom Blake SUNY-Binghamton
