Description

Pudd'nhead Wilson is a biting social commentary with enduring relevance, set in a Mississippi town during the pre-Civil War era. Twain's satire tackles the complex issue of slavery through a tragicomedy of switched identities, where a child born free and a child born a slave change places. This novel introduces one of Twain's favorite characters: Pudd'nhead Wilson, an intellectual with a penchant for amateur sleuthing. With its intricate plot and sharp social commentary, Pudd'nhead Wilson is a thought-provoking read that explores the consequences of slavery in America. With an Introduction by Louis Budd, this edition provides a unique perspective on Twain's masterpiece.
