649758 Gah, I HATE Milton! And it is just me, or is anyone else bothered by the fact that he can't mention Eve without pointing out that she's naked - "Eve, naked, trimmed the rosebushes... Naked Eve served fruit..." - etc. Dude had issues.

649758 And stupid. Eve is portrayed as this pathetic, idiotic, helpless nudist who adoringly follows a rather patronizing Adam around like a lost puppy, only less entertaining.
I'm not a feminist, but that book irritates the hell out of me.

Nophoto-m-25x33 Heck, even the fruit parts sound pretty entertaining. Nothing better than good fresh fruit.
