Mark Twain here collaborates with Charles Dudley Warner in a novel which gave its name to the era in which it was written. Here is a definitive dissection of the pretenses of the high Victorian era, its corruption, hypocrisy, and, in Twain's eye, comic absurdities. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге The Gilded Age, Vol. 1 (Mark Twain)
