A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court by Mark Twain

5.0

"A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court" is an engaging and thought-provoking novel that takes readers on a journey back to the days of King Arthur. As a 25-year-old girl, I found the protagonist's resourcefulness and use of modern knowledge in a medieval world captivating. The book raises intriguing questions about progress and clashes between eras, while also providing strong female characters. Mark Twain's satire and social commentary add depth to the story, though the dense prose and occasional slow pacing may challenge some readers. Overall, it's an enjoyable and worthwhile read for those interested in exploring different time periods and reflecting on societal norms.
