A Twin anthology was one of the 1st books I loaded on my 1st gifted kindle, when I wasn’t sure I’d like this technology & it was public domain! Just pulled it up, I’ll read it today. Thanks!
Sadly, many of the younger generation has never heard of the story, and perhaps even if they have heard of Twain, think he isn't worth knowing. Instead of banning books in libraries, we should be reading them, even if we have a different perspective.
Listening to Kirn and Taibbi is my weekly therapy session and I love Thomas Sowell ( he just turned 93). Im Canadian and I’ve never read Twain. Now I will. Thank you Dr. Mandrola and I wish you a wonderful fourth weekend with your family.
Love Twain, Reading his “Joan of Arch” now. One wonders if anything formed out of corruption and betrayal can ever be made ... “right”. It never was from the start. It makes a soul yearn for the perfection of the originate, the simplicity of Hippocrates and the gods. Maybe medicine was better when it was at the hands of the gods, and not the imperfections and malice of men.
Thank you! I will look into this book. In the meantime, I wish you and your family a Happy 4th of July. The Lord be with you all. Enjoy your time together as a family.
Anytime you see a “white pill”, take it. Being black pilled is an unhealthy way to liveZ
You may also like „The Visit“ by Friedrich Dürrenmatt, a classic novel touching on a similar topic.
