In this thought-provoking dialogue, Mark Twain strips away illusions about free will, morality, and the nature of human behavior. Presented as a sharp exchange between a young idealist and a seasoned philosopher, What Is Man? challenges cherished beliefs, probing whether humans are truly autonomous or simply products of their training, environment, and inherent machinery.

Witty, uncompromising, and intellectually bracing, Twain's work pushes listeners to question their assumptions about themselves and others. This unflinching philosophical conversation reveals a side of Twain rarely seen—one that's as incisive as it is unsettling.

Perfect for fans of classic literature, moral philosophy, and fearless inquiry, this audiobook offers a timeless exploration of what it really means to be human.
