Przygody Huck'a

Twain Mark, właściwie Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835-1910), pisarz amerykański. Samouk, wędrowny drukarz, pilot na Missisipi, poszukiwacz złota w Nevadzie, wreszcie dziennikarz. Odbył wiele podróży po Ameryce i kilkakrotnie odwiedził Europę, wyśmiewając dumę i wyrafinowanie kulturalne mieszkańców Starego Świata. Popularność jako pisarz zyskał z chwilą opublikowania humoreski O sławnej skaczącej żabie z Calaveras (1865).

In 1905, “Eve’s Diary” was published in the Christmas issue of “Harper’s Bazaar” and then as a book in 1906.

Tom Sawyer

Whether forming a pirate gang to search for buried treasure or spending a quiet time at home, sharing his medicine with Aunt Polly’s cat, the irrepressible Tom Sawyer evokes the world of boyhood in nineteenth-century rural America. In this classic story, Mark Twain re-created a long-ago world of freshly whitewashed fences and Sunday school picnics into which sordid characters and violent incidents sometimes intruded. The tale powerfully appeals to both adult nostalgia and young...
