Science Fiction

If you like science fiction you’ll probably like The Mysterious Stranger by Mark Twain.
Yes, that Mark Twain. His last book, took him 12 years, three drafts, and was unpublished when he died.

Quote:

He turned upon me despairingly, pathetically, adding, "If it only had some capacity, some depth, or breadth, or — or — but you see it doesn't hold anything; one cannot pour the starred and shoreless expanses of the universe into a jug!"
