Book excerpt: Mark Twain's classic novels, 'The Adventures of Tom Sawyer' and 'The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,' are two quintessential works of American literature that have left a lasting impact on readers for generations. These timeless stories explore the trials and tribulations of young boys navigating the complexities of life in the mid-19th century Mississippi River region. Twain's use of descriptive language and witty dialogue capture the essence of childhood innocence, mischief, and the ever-present theme of freedom. Through the adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, Twain masterfully weaves together themes of morality, loyalty, and the struggle between societal expectations and personal beliefs. These novels are not only entertaining but also thought-provoking, inviting readers to reflect on the universal truths found within the pages. Mark Twain's own experiences growing up in the South and working as a riverboat pilot on the Mississippi River undoubtedly influenced his writing, allowing him to authentically portray the setting and characters in his novels. With his keen eye for detail and satirical wit, Twain crafts a compelling narrative that continues to resonate with readers of all ages. I highly recommend 'The Adventures of Tom Sawyer' and 'The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn' to anyone seeking a captivating and richly crafted literary experience.

Book excerpt: The story begins in fictional St. Petersburg, Missouri (based on the actual town of Hannibal, Missouri), on the shore of the Mississippi River "forty to fifty years ago" (the novel having been published in 1884). Huckleberry "Huck" Finn (the protagonist and first-person narrator) and his friend, Thomas "Tom" Sawyer, have each come into a considerable sum of money as a result of their earlier adventures (detailed in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer). Huck explains how he is placed under the guardianship of the Widow Douglas, who, together with her stringent sister, Miss Watson, are attempting to "sivilize" him and teach him religion. Finding civilized life confining, his spirits are raised somewhat when Tom Sawyer helps him to escape one night past Miss Watson's slave Jim, to meet up with Tom's gang of self-proclaimed "robbers." Just as the gang's activities begin to bore Huck, he is suddenly interrupted by the reappearance of his shiftless father, "Pap", an abusive alcoholic. Knowing that Pap would only spend the money on alcohol, Huck is successful in preventing Pap from acquiring his fortune; however, Pap kidnaps Huck and leaves town with him.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: o Includes the authoritative texts for eleven pieces written between 1868 and 1902 o Publishes, for the first time, the complete text of "Villagers of 1840-3," Mark Twain's astounding feat of memory o Features a biographical directory and notes that reflect extensive new research on Mark Twain's early life in Missouri Throughout his career, Mark Twain frequently turned for inspiration to memories of his youth in the Mississippi River town of Hannibal, Missouri. What has come to be known as the Matter of Hannibal inspired two of his most famous books, Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, and provided the basis for the eleven pieces reprinted here. Most of these selections (eight of them fiction and three of them autobiographical) were never completed, and all were left unpublished. Written between 1868 and 1902, they include a diverse assortment of adventures, satires, and reminiscences in which the characters of his own childhood and of his best-loved fiction, particularly Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer, come alive again. The autobiographical recollections culminate in an astounding feat of memory titled "Villagers of 1840-3" in which the author, writing for himself alone at the age of sixty-one, recalls with humor and pathos the characters of some one hundred and fifty people from his childhood. Accompanied by notes that reflect extensive new research on Mark Twain's early life in Missouri, the selections in this volume offer a revealing view of Mark Twain's varied and repeated attempts to give literary expression to the Matter of Hannibal.
