Carl Reiner, a hilarious entertainer for over 40 years, and creator of the Dick Van Dyke show, reads Mark Twain's What is Man? a skeptical assessment of free will, determinism, religious belief and the nature of humanity. The story takes the form of a Socratic dialog between a romantic young idealist and an elderly cynic regarding the existence of man. Colorful, irreverent, romantic, skeptical, a master of comic asides, a bitterweet humorist, and unflinching critic of human behavior, Twain investigates the possibilities in a work he published anonymously 25 years after its writing.
