Mark Twain's Autobiography, 1910-2010

Más información sobre el libro

Michael Kupperman, inspired by the recent publication of Mark Twain's autobiography, delivers a hilarious book-length masterpiece. Twain’s introduction sets the tone: he greets future readers, humorously acknowledging that if they are reading his words, it means the written word has survived and he’s still relevant. He jests about his supposed death a century ago, claiming he never actually died but was kept alive by a wizard's magic spell, which he won't reveal for another thousand years. He explains the delay in publishing his memoirs, humorously suggesting financial motives. Twain cheekily addresses rumors about his past, including being Jack the Ripper and his role in Lincoln's assassination, while hoping for readers' forgiveness. The narrative promises wild adventures, including Twain confronting the Yeti, meeting the Six Million Dollar Man, having a love affair with Mamie Eisenhower, and accidentally getting involved in X-rated films. Kupperman's deadpan illustrations complement Twain's outrageous escapades, making this a must-read for fans eager to explore the absurdity of Twain's life and legacy.
