A Connecticut Yankee is Mark Twain's most ambitious work, a tour de force with a science-fiction plot told in the racy slang of a Hartford workingman, sparkling with literary hijinks as well as social and political satire. Mark Twain characterized his novel as ``one vast sardonic laugh at the trivialities, the servilities of our poor human race.`` The Yankee, suddenly transported from his native nineteenth-century America to the sleepy sixth-century Britain of King Arthur and the Round Table, vows brashly to ``boss the whole country inside of three weeks.`` And so he does. Emerging as ``The Boss,`` he embarks on an ambitious plan to modernize Camelot--with unexpected results.
