The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson and Those Extraordinary Twins, by Mark Twain
The first story, The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson, is quite good, if rather dated in ideals and speech. The second story, Those Extraordinary Twins, was written with the throwaway bits from the first story, and it feels like it. My recommendation: Stop after the first story. The second story does tackle the nature/nurture debate, but so do many other books that are worth reading.
