Download or read book Pudd nhead Wilson and Those Extraordinary Twins written by Mark Twain and published by . This book was released on 1922 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a story of a sober kind, picturing life in a little town of Missouri, half a century ago. The principal incidents relate to a slave of mixed blood and her almost pure white son, whom she substitutes for her master's baby. The slave by birth grows up in wealth and luxury, but turns out a peculiarly mean scoundrel, and perpetrating a crime, meets with due justice. The science of fingerprints is practically illustrated in detecting the fraud. The title character is the village atheist, whose maxims doubtless express much of the author's own disillusion.

Download or read book Comic Tragedies written by Louisa May Alcott and published by Lindhardt og Ringhof. This book was released on 2022-07-14 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Louisa May Alcott's most popular novel, ́Little Women ́, featured the March sisters, who were based on her own family. In this collection of short plays, originally written by Alcott and her real sisters, Alcott adds to the world of ́Little Women ́, as the plays are made to seem like they were penned by Jo and Meg from ́Little Women ́ and acted out by them and other characters in the book. The plays are not as complicated as the background, thankfully. They are short, pithy, melodramatic and feature witches, magic, murder, ghosts and farcical situations. If you are a fan of ́Little Women ́, which was recently adapted for the silver screen for the seventh time, starring Emma Watson and Timothée Chalamet, you will love this additional glimpse into the lives of the March sisters. Louisa May Alcott (1832-1888) was an American writer who is best known for her novel ́Little Women ́. She also grew up among some heavyweight 19th-century intellectuals, including Henry David Thoreau and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. With her parents struggling financially, Alcott worked to support them. At the same time, she began writing, initially under pseudonyms because her work was largely short stories and sensation novels for adults. ́Little Women ́, published in 1868, was an instant success upon release. Alcott also penned the follow-ups ́Little Men ́ and ́Jo's Boys ́.
