Produktinformationen zu „The Mark Twain Collection (ePub)“

Mark Twain's novels are filled with humor, wit, and astounding insight into the world of the 19th-century United States. Written entirely in the vernacular, these classic satirical tales exposed the bigotry and hypocrisy of American life. The cheerful Tom Sawyer, the goodnatured Huck Finn, the independent Hank Morgan, and the well-meaning Tom Canty are quintessential Twain characters, full of life, verve, and a sense of justice they often felt was missing from the world around them.

Mark Twain wrote a vast number of pieces of light humorous verse, news articles and pieces of social criticism, but it was not until the later years of his career that he was to combine the experience he obtained from these to create his classic novels. With his characteristic wit, he took the experience of his youth to build the characters of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn and he took the historical settings of medieval England to produce scathing and wildly entertaining satires.

Included in this collection are four of his greatest and most popular novels: The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, and The Prince and the Pauper. They are the perfect introduction to the work of one of America's foremost talents.

Autoren-Porträt von Mark Twain

Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835-1910), better known as Mark Twain, grew up in small town Missouri where he could see the steamboats navigating the great river every day. As a young man, he was frequently on the move, working as a typesetter, as an apprentice to a riverboat captain, and eventually as a reporter during the Civil War. During this time, he developed a distinctive writing style. His publication of "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" in 1865 brought him national attention. His writing always possessed a touch of humor, sometimes gentle, sometimes bitter. In 1876, he turned his mind back to the pleasant days of his childhood as he wrote The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, both a classic humorous story of the exploits of a mischievous boy and an exposé of contemporary American society. Since then, his fame has only increased.
