Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. An excellent collection of short stories by one of the best American authors of all time. Twain shows his versatility here, with some stories that seem like fables, some that read like science fiction, a couple with trick endings, and one that is genuinely and poignantly heart-wrenching. My edition contains an excellent afterword providing some context and analysis of the pieces contained, which was quite welcome. ( ) no reviews | add a review
