    Abroad And Beyond
  

*by D***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 31, 2013*

I'm not quite sure about how I feel about this book in toto.  So much of it is unreliable, if regarded as historical non-fiction, if attention is paid to detail, but is that really the way to read it?  The book is composed, in the main, of reports Twain was commissioned to write of this so-called pleasure cruise for newspapers in the States.  Many of these reports were lost in transit and Twain was obliged to reconstruct them from memory.  The essential problem is trying to decide whether Twain, as he is more often than not, writing tongue in cheek, or perhaps halfway in cheek, or, mirabile dictu, completely in earnest.  What struck me most after finishing this book is that the style of writing is divided into two sections.  I'll simply call them the European and the Palestinian/Egyptian sections and go from there.The greater part of the book is comprised of the European section.  Here Twain is full of the guffaw-inducing, faux-naif style with which readers generally acquaint him.  Much of it, as other reviewers have remarked, is tedious and repetitious, particularly annoying is the colloquial use of "don't" rather than "doesn't" in the Third Person Singular - i.e., "He don't..." - as well as repetitious wisecracks and buffooneries.  But what struck me the most was his attitude to the "great masters" of European art.  I much more respect and find quite refreshing Twain's contrarian honesty about what strikes him as aesthetic than the Henry James attitude of kneeling prostrate before what he has been told is great art.  I'm sure that this sort of thing has happened to every reader of this review: A painting or a book strikes a deep chord in him or her; s/he admires, respects and adores it as s/he has never done regarding any painting or book heretofore, until that is some "expert" tells him or her that the book or painting is not considered "of first water" or some such euphemism by people "in the know" about such things.  I'm not saying, nor is Twain, that there aren't or shouldn't be ANY standards, but the standards at a certain time and place adopted are often all too fleeting and arbitrary and many a person's blossoming appreciation for the beautiful and creative is often killed dead by such remarks.  It is a very healthy American attitude to dismiss such judgements, and, as Thoreau puts it, march to the beat of your own drummer.But Twain's style changes to a large extent once they reach Palestine.  His acerbic pen is not spared here for either his fellow passengers or the locals, nor for Biblical imaginings, but an introspective, even poetic element enters the writing and grows.  I don't have space here to cover all the aspects of this stylistic alteration, but it quite pleasantly surprised me.  I think it reaches its apex towards the end in his description of The Sphinx.  Tell me, reader, does this sound like the Twain you think you know?"After years of waiting, it was before me at last.  The great face was so sad, so earnest, so longing, so patient.  There was a dignity not of Earth in its mien, and in its countenance a benignity such as never anything human wore.  It was looking towards the verge of the landscape, yet looking at nothing - nothing but distance and vacancy.  It was looking over and beyond everything of the present, and far into the past.  It was gazing out over the ocean of Time - over lines of century-waves which, further and further receding, closed nearer and nearer together, and blended at last into one unbroken tide, away towards the horizon of remote antiquity...It was the type of an attribute of man - of a faculty of his heart and brain.  It was Memory Retrospection - wrought into visible, tangible form....The Sphinx is grand in its loneliness; it is imposing in its magnitude;it is impressive in the mystery that hangs over its story."Twain or Proust?!?  As I say, every reader will no doubt find something that irritates him or her about this book, but it is more than made up for by the passages one comes to love!Four stars, and critics be damned!

Anyone on house arrest should read this satire.  This is about the nature of the moon shot vacation hype.  Reality sinks in
