<p>More than a century ago, Mark Twain&#8217;s short story Eve&#8217;s Diary was banned from a Massachusetts library due to nude illustrations of biblical Eve. But nowadays, with books like Twilight and Crank being constantly challenged for censorship, the artistic representations of Eve don&#8217;t seem so tasteless after all.</p>

<p>When the story was banned in 1906,[http://www.chaussureslouboutinpaszcher.com louboutin pas cher], Mark Twain himself was not particularly concerned, saying in a letter, &#8220;the truth is,[http://www.abercrombieandnfitchfrance.com abercrombie france], that when a library expels a book of mine and leaves an unexpurgated Bible lying around where unprotected youth and age can get hold of it,[http://www.hoganonegozio.com hogan], the deep unconscious irony of it delights me and doesn&#8217;t anger me.&#8221;</p>

<p>In celebration of Banned Books Week,[http://www.christianlouboutinuuk.com christian louboutin], the Charlton Public Library unanimously voted last week to reinstate Twain&#8217;s embargoed book — revealing drawings and all — reversing a decision that was made by trustee Frank Wakefield in 1906.</p>

<p>Two copies of Eve&#8217;s Diary are now stocked at the Charlton Public Library, in addition to an older-edition copy that is to be displayed in a glass case. But good luck getting your hands on one. According to Reuters, within hours of being re-shelved,[http://www.dolcegabbanaemagasin.com dolce gabbana], one copy was checked out. And somehow, we don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s because of the risque drawings.</p>

<p>Written from the perspective of Eve, the story imagines what the first woman ever created might have thought about the world and her mate, Adam. (Did we mention that Eve&#8217;s Diary is available to read for free online at Project Gutenberg?) Besides honestly trying to catch stars and cuddling with tigers,[http://www.suprashoesastore.com supra shoes], Twain&#8217;s representation of Eve is comparable to most women — she likes to talk, is often confused by her relationship with Adam,[http://www.chaussureslouboutinpaszcher.com louboutin], and can be quite restless. But Shelley Fisher Fishkin, a Twain scholar at Stanford University, told the New York Times that the story was written after Twain&#8217;s wife,[http://www.chaussureslouboutinpaszcher.com louboutin], Olivia, passed away,[http://www.hoganonegozio.com outlet hogan], and is,[http://www.franklinemarshallboutique.com franklin marshall], &#8220;infused with his appreciation for the women he was close to.&#8221;</p>

<p>But Charlton Library director Cheryl Hansen felt that it was an important step to make the story available to readers. &#8220;I think that Mark Twain would be very pleased, and I&#8217;m sure that he would have something humorous to say about it,[http://www.raybannlunettes.com ray ban],&#8221; Hansen told the Guardian.</p>
