This antiquarian volume contains the last novel attempted by Mark Twain, ""The Mysterious Stranger."" Twain worked on this novel sporadically from 1897 to 1908. He wrote numerous versions of the story, each incomplete and featuring a character called 'Satan' or 'No. 44'. ""The Mysterious Stranger"" constitutes a serious social commentary concerning the ideas of morality and the 'damned human race', and it is highly recommended for those with an interest in such fiction. It is a veritable must-have for fans and collectors of Twain's fantastic work and would make for a great addition to any personal library. Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835 - 1910), better known by his pseudonym, Mark Twain, was a seminal American writer and humourist. Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly hard to come by and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author. | The Mysterious Stranger and Other Stories by Mark Twain, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
