This is the story of the true first family. Eve and Adam are cast together in an accidental, mismatched relationship on the coast of an unnamed continent, somewhere near the equator, amid a lush, fecund jungle, overloaded with fruit, berries, nuts and edible plants to sustain them. Like all families everywhere, this is the story of a special family that suffers through falling in love, transitions, deep wounds, both physical and mental, wonderful, joyous times and ultimately, tragedies; in short, the whole catastrophe of life. Eve, the brilliant woman and Adam, the hard worker and hunter, each seek their own divergent destinies and ultimately find them on their third and last farm near a small village along a river near the cradle of civilization which they help create. The story is told from a naturalist's point of view as well as from a woman's point of view. These two elements combine to give us an illuminating, expanded story of the original couple's life.
