The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson is Twain's classic tale of a slave switched at birth with a slave owner's son. The two lives unfold in a small town, portraying how racial relationships were structured in the antebellum South. Part detective story, part courtroom drama, and part satire, Twain's dark humor is only matched by his insight into human psychology, emotion, and responsibility.
