bailed
Mark Twain is hilarious - his dry wit is top notch. However, I enjoy his travel accounts, maybe not his fiction.
I read the titular story and didn‘t find it funny at all (I also didn‘t appreciate the way the animals were treated.) I skimmed the second story, The Man Who Corrupted Hadleyburg, as I wasn‘t enjoying it either. I guess the satire is the joke, but I miss his usual humorous, trenchant remarks. I gave the rest of the stories a miss.
