Mark Twain 
The Tragedy of Pudd’nhead Wilson [EPUB ebook] 

’The Tragedy of Pudd’nhead Wilson’ begins with the act of a young slave girl exchanging her light-skinned child, fearing for its safety, for that of her master’s. From this reversal of identities evolves a suspenseful murder mystery and courtroom drama. ’The Tragedy of Pudd’nhead Wilson’ is everything one would expect from a novel by Mark Twain. On the surface it is a witty and satirical tale but as one digs deeper a biting social commentary of racial inequality can be found.
