elanalewis 's review for:

Joan of Arc by Mark Twain
4.0

Oh man. This book packs a punch! I've been reading it with all the Greta Thunberg stuff going on. What a sobering reality that man is capable of such cruelty.

Twain is such a genius at turn of phrases. It got a little long during the trial but I give nods to the amount of research and adherence to history.

There is no happy ending to this story. May it be a lesson to us all.
