A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court
By Mark Twain
Length12h 29m
About this audiobook
A pragmatic 19th-century engineer suffers a blow to the head and wakes up in 6th-century England during the reign of King Arthur. Using his knowledge of modern technology, he attempts to modernize Camelot, introducing electricity, factories, and democratic ideals. The novel uses humor and satire to contrast the romanticized chivalry of the past with the industrial progress of the present. It ends in a tragic commentary on the destructive potential of technology when unchecked by wisdom.
