Mark X

Who Killed Huck Finn's Father?

Beschreibung

The key to the mystery of Twain's writings, as this book contends from a broader perspective, is also such an absence. Twain's persistent reticence about the death of his father, especially the autopsy performed on his naked body, is a crucial clue to understanding his works.
