In 1986, the year of Haley's comet, Reid, on his regular pre-dawn Key
West beach stroll, stumbles across and elderly gentleman who verifiably
proves to be the Mark Twain, white suit and all. Apparently, news of
Twain's demise, even after 75 years, has again been greatly
exaggerated. Losing the wager they make, Reid lives up to his part of
the bargain by providing Twain with room and board for the next 30
days.
<br /><br />Curious to see what has occurred since his last departure in 1910,
Reid sets out to bring Twain up to date from political correctness to
modern inventions with a whirlwind tour of live blues, a nude bar, an
Indian reservation, past fields of Latino migrants, Epcot, Disneyworld
and a return flight. All building toward an awe inspired packed
audience to witness Twain's final performance of commentary on today's
human condition in his typical wit, humor and wisdom
<br /><br />I'm not so sure j guevara hasn't actually met Samuel Clemons, aka
Mark Twain. Twain's dialogue especially in his performance near the end
of the book is realistic. I found The Twain Shall Meet, entertaining,
humorous and a delightful read.
<br /><br />This is the first book I have read by author j guevara. I eagerly
await his next book. J has that special something that few authors
have. It is a special gift that you are either born with or not.
Guevara was born with it. The characters are life-like and likable. The
plot is interesting and has a message to it. The Twain Shall Meet is
the type of book that compels you to reread. Well done Mr. j guevara! <br />
This one shouldn't be missed!<br /><br /><br />Walt Long:<br />In
a tale that rivals Mark Twain's own classic adventures with colorful
characters and relevant insights, j Guevara has crafted a funny and
intelligent story that bridges time and cultural change. He has a
remarkable gift for dialog and for subtle, Twainesque humor.
