«Las aventuras de Tom Sawyer» is Mark Twain's adventure novel, published by Anaya in hardcover (316 pages, in Spanish).
Tom Sawyer is a restless boy growing up in a small town on the banks of the Mississippi. His pranks and rebelliousness clash with an adult world full of conventions; through its characters, the novel contrasts childish logic with the social double standards of the nineteenth century.
It is the first installment in the Adventures of Tom and Huck series, originally published in 1876. This edition is part of the Tus Libros collection and includes a translation by Doris Rolfe.
Suitable for young readers starting out on the classics and for adults wishing to rediscover a story of childhood.
Samuel Langhorne Clemens, known by the pen name Mark Twain, was an American writer, humorist, and essayist. He has been praised as the "greatest humorist the United States has produced", with William Faulkner calling him "the father of American literature". Twain's novels include The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and its sequel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884), with the latter often called the "Great American Novel". He also wrote A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1889) and Pudd'nhead Wilson (1894) and cowrote The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today (1873) with Charles Dudley Warner.
