Hank Morgan awakens one morning to find he has
been transported from nineteenth-century New England to
sixth-century England and the reign of King Arthur and the Knights
of the Round Table. Morgan brings to King Arthur's utopian court
the ingenuity of the future, resulting in a culture clash that is
at once satiric, anarchic, and darkly comic.
Critically deemed one of Twain's finest and most caustic works, A
Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court is both a delightfully
entertaining story and a disturbing analysis of the efficacy of
government, the benefits of progress, and the dissolution of social
mores. It remains as powerful a work of fiction today as it was
upon its first publication in 1889.
