The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Amazon Classics Edition)

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Amazon Classics Edition)

The classic, in all its glory â€“ though what many forget is how well this tale of American boyhood holds up even after nearly 150 years. Tom Sawyer, his best friend Huck Finn, his would-be girlfriend Becky Thatcher, and his aunt Polly teach and learn about life, death, race and painting fences in a â€œtypicalâ€ 19th century Midwestern town that bears a striking resemblance to Twainâ€™s hometown of Hannibal, Missouri. On one level, this is the prototypical tale of one boyâ€™s innocence and how he lost it, but itâ€™s also a profound evocation of the national character that Twain, an odd combination of independent thinker and moralist, clearly thought needed some analyzing.
