English 1101 Summary on “Eve’s Diary” Eve’s diary chronicles Adam and Eve’s first days on earth from Eve’s point of view. Eve is a curious creature who is learning more and more by the day. God is giving her names for the animals and plants as she comes across them although she does not know where the names are coming from. She longs for Adam to talk to her and be around her but he seems to have no interest in her or what she likes. Little things such as the moon rising and falling fascinate her. She wishes to make the most of her life. She makes many friends with the animals since she feels that Adam does not want to be involved with her. Things change after they eat the forbidden fruit. She has fallen in love with Adam and is not sure why. She feels that she can love him for his endearing qualities that he has and she can love him without them.
