Описание: Though now enshrined as major masterpieces of American literature, Twain`s classic tales of childhood remain as fresh as when they were first written. Vivid and funny, the stories chronicle journeys from innocence to experience in which innocence is preserved.

Описание: For nearly two decades before Mark Twain published his finest novel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, he was refining his craft and winning tremendous popularity with his short stories and sketches. This richly entertaining and comprehensive collection presents sixty-five of the very best of Mark Twain's short pieces, from the classic frontier sketch "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" to the richly imaginative fable "Extract from Captain Stormfield's Visit to Heaven." Compiled by Pulitzer Prize-winning Twain scholar and biographer, Justin Kaplan, this collection represents some of Mark Twain's wittiest and most insightful writing.

Описание: A provocative, exuberant, and deeply researched investigation into Mark Twain s writing of "Huckleberry Finn," which turns on its head everything we thought we knew about America s favorite icon of childhood.
In "Huck Finn s America," award-winning biographer Andrew Levy shows how modern readers have been misunderstanding "Huckleberry Finn" for decades. Twain s masterpiece, which still sells tens of thousands of copies each year and is taught more than any other American classic, is often discussed either as a carefree adventure story for children or a serious novel about race relations, yet Levy argues convincingly it is neither. Instead, "Huck Finn" was written at a time when Americans were nervous about youth violence and uncivilized bad boys, and a debate was raging about education, popular culture, and responsible parenting casting Huck s now-celebrated freedom in a very different and very modern light. On issues of race, on the other hand, Twain s lifelong fascination with minstrel shows and black culture inspired him to write a book not about civil rights, but about race s role in entertainment and commerce, the same features upon which much of our own modern consumer culture is also grounded. In Levy s vision, "Huck Finn" has more to say about contemporary children and race that we have ever imagined if we are willing to hear it.
An eye-opening, groundbreaking exploration of the character and psyche of Mark Twain as he was writing his most famous novel, "Huck Finn s America" brings the past to vivid, surprising life, and offers a persuasive and controversial argument for why this American classic deserves to be understood anew."

Описание: Mark Twain moves from broad comedy to biting social satire in this literary classic.

Cracked on the head by a crowbar in nineteenth-century Connecticut, Hank Morgan wakes to find himself in King Arthur's England. After using his knoweldge of an upcoming solar eclipse to escape a death sentence, Hank must then navigate his way through a medieval world whose idyllic surface masks fear, injustice, and ignorance.

Considered by H. L. Mencken to be "the most bitter critic of American platitude and delusion...that ever lived," Twain enchants readers with a Camelot that strikes disturbingly contemporary notes in this acclaimed tour de force that encompasses both the pure joy of wild high jinks and deeply probing insights into the nature of man.

Описание: What began as a literary burlesque of British chivalry and culture grew into a disturbing satire of modern technology and social thought. The story of Hank Morgan, a 19th-century American who is accidentally returned to 6th-century England, is a powerful analysis of such issues as monarchy versus democracy and free will versus determinism, but it is also one of Twain's comic novels.
