Mark Twain's "Personal Recollections of Joan of Arc" tells the story of the legendary French heroine through the eyes of her fictional childhood friend, Sieur Louis de Conte. The novel, narrated at an old age by Louis, recounts Joan's life in three parts: her simple beginnings in Domrémy, her rise to military leadership inspired by divine voices, and her tragic downfall at trial. Through Louis's perspective, Twain paints a portrait of Joan as a courageous, deeply religious young woman caught in the complex political and religious turmoil of 15th-century France. The novel explores themes of faith, leadership, and the enduring legacy of heroism.
