Letters From The Earth by Mark Twain
"Letters from the Earth" is a posthumously published work that consists of a series of essays written from the perspective of Satan, who, banished to Earth, writes letters to his fellow archangels about the curious practices, beliefs, and idiosyncrasies of humans. Through these satirical letters, the book explores the contradictions in human society and Christian doctrine with sharp wit and biting humor. The work delves into themes of morality, religion, and the human condition, offering a critical and often cynical view of the constructs that govern human life.
