About this title

From the Publisher:

Hesperus Press, as suggested by their Latin motto, Et remotissima prope, is dedicated to bringing near what is far—far both in space and time. Works by illustrious authors, often unjustly neglected or simply little known in the English–speaking world, are made accessible through a completely fresh editorial approach or new translations. Through these short classic works, which feature forewords by leading contemporary authors, the modern reader will be introduced to the greatest writers of Europe and America. An elegantly designed series of exceptional books.

Written in diary form, this first single–volume edition of Mark Twain’s complete writings on Adam and Eve is an ingenious, witty, and delightful retelling of the dawn of human creation. With a Foreword by John Updike.

From the Inside Flap:

lightful sampling of the timeless wit and fertile imagination of Mark Twain, who pictures the first couple as they find themselves trapped in paradise.
