Gilded Age, A Tale of Today

Gilded Age, A Tale of Today

The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today is an 1873 satirical novel by Mark Twain and Charles Dudley Warner that critiques greed and political corruption in post-Civil War America. The term 'gilded age' originates from the book's title, reflecting the superficiality and excess of the era. Notably, it is Twain's only novel co-written with another author and has influenced discussions on materialism and corruption in American society. The book has been published in over 100 editions since its release.
