Description
1927 The Mysterious Stranger Mark Twain Satan Nihilism NC Wyeth ART Atheism
Widely considered the least known of Mark Twains works, The Mysterious Stranger, was originally posthumously published in Harpers Magazine from May to November 1916. Twain worked on the story for nearly a decade prior to his death yet never completed it. The story was written with intent to address the immorality of man and the futility of their existence. Twain conveys these ideas through a tale about Satan (also known as No. 44), the young nephew of the fallen Satan, who pays a visit to a few members of the human race. This work includes color illustrations by N.C. Wyeth.
