  <description>&lt;a href="http://librivox.org/"&gt;LibriVox&lt;/a&gt; recording of The Mysterious Stranger and Other Stories, by Mark Twain. Read by Ted Delorme.&#13;
&#13;
Here's a Mark Twain story that's very unlike those he became famous for, but when I read it back in Catholic high school, it left a deep impression.  It concerns the deeply religious residents of a small village in Austria during the late sixteenth century, and what happened to several of them when a strange man began to visit their insulated homeland.  There's little of Twain's humor here; this is a horror story, a parable. . . and a warning. &#13;
