Mark Twain, the American novelist, wrote a book and promptly died when it was finished--even before it could be printed and published. This book was entitled The Mysterious Stranger, and in it he put forward the probability that all our life may be but a dream and that if this is so we can learn from it to support life's difficulties and endure till the end. Was it possible that Twain got some sort of intuition and guidance when the shadow of death was beginning to fall upon him?
