About This Book
The work presents a comic diary of the first man in a primeval garden, recording his bewilderment at a newly arrived companion, the scramble over naming animals and places, and the awkward negotiations of domestic life. Short entries mix wry observations about language, curiosity, and solitude with comic episodes such as renaming landmarks, disputes over food and leisure, curious experiments with animals, and daring excursions near a great waterfall, as both adjust to each other and to the unfamiliar realities of human companionship.
