Twain scholar Michael Kiskis opens exploration of Twain with the observation that most readers have no idea that Samuel Clemens was the father of four and that he lived through the deaths of three of his children as well as his wife. In Mark Twain at Home, Kiskis argues that not only was Mark Twain not, as many believe, "antidomestic,” but rather the home and family were the muse and core message of his writing.
