Mark Twain Classic Novels Editorial Review
In this editorial review, the customer reflects on their experience reading "The Gilded Age" by Mark Twain. The reviewer highlights the theme of corruption and greed portrayed in the book, drawing parallels to the present day. They describe the novel as a comic tale of land speculation and greed, and compare it to the current spirit of corruption and greed in society. The customer notes that although this was Twain's only collaborative novel, it is still a good read. They mention that it is obvious when the other writer takes over, but still finds them witty. The scenes on the riverboat and in Congress are particularly praised and are said to be almost at the level of Twain's best work. The reviewer concludes by calling the novel a "very curious" one, noting that despite its age, it still provides an engaging adventure through various states and situations. They recommend it to those interested in Mark Twain or American literature, giving it a rating of 3 stars.
