Mark Twain's Burlesque Autobiography
by Mark Twain
"Mark Twain's Burlesque Autobiography" by Mark Twain is a book published in 1871. This satirical work contains two short stories featuring fictional characters Twain claims are part of his family lineage, despite bearing no relationship to his actual life. The narrative builds to a crisis before Twain abruptly abandons his hero, declaring he cannot resolve the predicament. Notably, the book's illustrations lampoon the Erie Railroad Ring rather than relate to the text itself.
