Eve's Diary forms part of Twain's so-called Adamic Diaries, along with the works <i>That Day In Eden, Eve Speaks, Adam's Soliloquy, </i>and <i>The Autobiograhy of Eve</i>; unlike <i>Adam's Diary</i> and <i>Eve's Diary</i>, the other Adamic Diaries are dark in tone, and satirical of Christianity — they were not published during Twain's lifetime.

It is believed that Mark Twain wrote this book as a love letter to his wife, Livy, who died in June 1904; in a telling admission, Twain said: "Eve's Diary is finished — I've been waiting for her to speak, but she doesn't say anything more."
