Who Is Mark Twain?
by
Twain, Mark
Mark Twain's unpublished writings (of which there are apparently still a ton) give us a candid peek at a writer already well-known for his wit and irreverence. This new collection contains among its gems the rejected first draft of a lecture (including notes for an accompanying slide show), a political article thought too provocative for its time and a story which prefigures Six Feet Under, thought too tasteless by his own family to publish. Great stuff from one of America's most celebrated men of letters.--Sean Chiki, The Booksmith (San Francisco, CA) |
