What happens when a child born free and a child born a slave change places?  The result is a biting social commentary with enduring relevance, and a good old-fashioned murder mystery. It also introduces one of Twain’s favorite characters: Pudd’nhead Wilson, an intellectual with a penchant for amateur sleuthing. F.R. Leavis proclaimed this novel “the masterly work of a great writer.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWith an Introduction by Louis Budd\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Bulk","offers":[{"title":"Used \/ 9780451530745-001","offer_id":43778418868285,"sku":"9780451530745-001","price":3.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/20672533482348.jpg?v=1791380470","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/puddnhead-wilson-3","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
