Commentary on Boyhood

Obviously archaic language for the modern reader.

An enjoyable read I found slow at times. I think Twain did a great job of portraying childhood - though I'm not sure I'd have enjoyed this book as a kid as much as others I did rate.

I enjoyed the small chunks of plot, and how atmospheric the settings were throughout the book. Twain did an excellent job of portraying childish emotion and motivation.

I'm not sure I perceived the mastery of this work, though.
