The Adventures of Tom Sawyer |
Mark Twain (1835 - 1910) |
The story of a Missouri boyhood. Sometimes idyllic, sometimes rough and tumble. Schoolyard scrapes, getting lost in a cave, playing pirates on the Mississippi River - Tom Sawyer will rouse feelings of nostalgia for yesteryears. But underneath the childhood innocence lies the harsh adult realities of racism, superstitions, murder and revenge. An American Classic. |
