Book Description: University of Wisconsin Press, United States, 2010. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 2nd Revised edition. 229 x 152 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Mark Twainrsquo;s Own Autobiography stands as the last of Twainrsquo;s great yarns. Here he tells his story in his own way, freely expressing his joys and sorrows, his affections and hatreds, his rages and reverencemdash;ending, as always, tongue-in-cheek: ldquo;Now, then, that is the tale. Some of it is true.rdquo; nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; More than the story of a literary career, this memoir is anchored in the writerrsquo;s relation to his familymdash;what they meant to him as a husband, father, and artist. It also brims with many of Twainrsquo;s best comic anecdotes about his rambunctious boyhood in Hannibal, his misadventures in the Nevada territory, his notorious Whittier birthday speech, his travels abroad, and more. nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; Twain published twenty-five ldquo;Chapters from My Autobiographyrdquo; in the North American Review in 1906 and 1907. ldquo;I intend that this autobiography . . . shall be read and admired a good many centuries because of its form and methodmdash;form and method whereby the past and the present are constantly brought face to face, resulting in contrasts which newly fire up the interest all along, like contact of flint with steel.rdquo; nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; For this second edition, Michael Kiskisrsquo;s introduction references a wealth of critical work done on Twain since 1990. He also adds a discussion of literary domesticity, locating the autobiography within the history of Twainrsquo;s literary work and within Twainrsquo;s own understanding and experience of domestic concerns.nbsp; Bookseller Inventory # AAC9780299234744
