Descriptions du produit

Inside Pages, Spring 1998

Though many speculate that Eve's voice was Twain's eulogy to his beloved wife, Livy, the Diaries nevertheless contribute something universal to readers. . . . a truly noble treatment of gender and consequence --Ce texte provient d'une édition qui n'est plus publiée ou qui est non diponible.


Larry Howe, Mark Twain Forum, April 15, 1998

Although the original appearance of this material didn't attract much positive attention, this edition is proof that another look is more than warranted. For many readers familiar only with Twain's tales about mischievous boys or cranky vernacular characters, this work--one of the great love stories of all time--will come as a real surprise. Whether you're interested in Twain or not, if your heart hasn't atrophied, you will love The Diaries of Adam and Eve. . . . In this affecting book, Twain manages to indulge sentiment--personal and cultural--without succumbing to what Huck calls "soulbutter and hogwash." Twain has given the book to us. Give it to someone you love --Ce texte provient d'une édition qui n'est plus publiée ou qui est non diponible.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Had me laughing out loud., Nov. 15 2003
Par Armando L. Franco Carrillo "(Armando L. Franc... (Ensenada, BC, Mexico) - Voir tous mes commentaires

This review is from: The Diaries of Adam & Eve (Paperback)
This book is so funny! Put yourself in Adam's shoes: you have been alone on Paradise for some time, and suddenly appears this talking creature that follows you around. Adam's thoughts on Eve and the world are hillarious. And then comes the tale from Eve - who loves Adam very much-, which is tender and still fun.

I read this book with my wife and she was laughing too. Then I lent it to a friend. He read it and passed it on to his wife.

I read Mark Twain on high school, and time only makes it better.

Now I'm after "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn".

5.0étoiles sur 5 A tender, moving love story!, Mars 22 2003
Par Volkert Volkersz (Snohomish, WA United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Diaries of Adam & Eve (Audio CD)
Although Mark Twain uses the story of Adam and Eve in the Book of Genesis as the framework for these "diaries," the biblical couple and his are two entirely different stories. Having said that, Twain's version is such a touching love story, especially as it is rendered in this recording, it is worth hearing (or reading) without making any comparisons to the first Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.

I mention this because a high school student recently inquired with me about Twain's views on religion, and thought that these diaries might shed some light in his beliefs. While I encouraged her to read or listen to Twain's account, simply because of the beauty of the story, I don't think they shed much light on Twain's religious views.

I did find it interesting that Twain's Adam and Eve barely mention God at all. Perhaps that is a notable observation on his views of religion after all.

Twain's tender observations on the nature of men, women and love is what makes this a moving tale. Walter Cronkite's commentary at the end makes one appreciate the story even more.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Lovely book!, Mai 9 2002
This review is from: Diaries of Adam & Eve (Audio CD)
The Diaries of Adam and Eve is one of my favorite books. It's so gentle, funny, and deeply true I find myself loaning it to friends and giving it as a gift whenever I can. If you've not read Twain since Huckleberry Finn was forced upon you in junior high, this is a wonderful way to start reading Mark Twain's work again. If you've been looking for something to restore your faith in the worth of that whole man-woman thing, treat yourself to this book.
