Více o knize

Set in the Tudor era, this ribald satire by Mark Twain offers a humorous and provocative conversation among characters, showcasing Twain's signature vulgar comedy. Initially deemed near pornographic, it was privately circulated for years before obscenity laws changed. This particular edition, likely from the mid-1930s, includes illustrations by Mahlon Blaine, adding a visual element to Twain's sharp wit and social commentary. The book reflects the cultural tensions of its time regarding censorship and the acceptance of explicit content in literature.
