The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson is Mark Twain's novel set in a Mississippi River town before the Civil War. It blends small-town comedy, social satire, and a mystery about identity, slavery, and a courtroom trial, centered on a gentle lawyer whose fingerprint hobby becomes important. It is worth listening for its sharp dialogue and its critique of race and justice.
