"The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson" is a novel by Mark Twain, first published in 1894. Set in the fictional town of Dawson's Landing, Missouri, the story follows the lives of two boys, Tom Driscoll and Chambers, who were born on the same day but raised in vastly different circumstances. Tom grows up as the privileged son of a wealthy family, while Chambers is a slave in the same household. When the boys' true identities are revealed by a series of events involving a switch at birth, their lives become entangled in a complex web of deception, betrayal, and tragedy. Twain uses the novel to explore themes of race, identity, and the arbitrary nature of social distinctions, all with his trademark wit and keen observation. "The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson" stands as a compelling and thought-provoking commentary on the complexities of human nature and society.
