Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The novel intricately explores the life of Joan of Arc through the eyes of her fictional page, Louis de Conte. Divided into three parts, it chronicles her youthful beginnings in Domrémy, her rise as a military leader for Charles VII, and her trial in Rouen. Twain, aiming for a serious tone, initially published it anonymously in Harper's Magazine, but his authorship was soon revealed. This work stands as Twain's last completed novel, showcasing his deep engagement with historical themes and character development.
