I was listening to the audiobook. It is 45 hours long. It was super tedious and it lost interest.

Deeply researched and rendered; this tells a story of greater sadness than I expected.

Absolutely massive, somewhat exhausting to read. Less interested in Twain's actual literary works than in his long semi-retirement, which he seems to have used to make his daughters miserable and to attach himself to teenage girls who provided the uncritical adulation he craved. I will never forgive him for throwing away his wife's nest egg on a series of get-rich-quick schemes.

Interesting, but not that interesting and information overload.
