Recenzii
Lighting Out for the Territory is an energetic report on how Twain's attitude toward race developed, how his works have been used and abused, and how the image of himself that he so carefully invented has been coerced in making guest appearances in other people's fiction, movies, plays.
Ms. Fishkin's reflections on Mark Twain and American culture are an illuminating companion to any consideration of Twain's work.
