Description
Nominada por los estadounidenses como una de las 100 mejores novelas en la serie de PBS The Great American Read. «Solo me llamo as cuando me zurran. Cuando soy bueno me llamo Tom. Llmame Tom, de acuerdo? En Las aventuras de Tom Sawyer, Mark Twain recre una poca de cercas enjalbegadas y picnics dominicales en la parroquia, cuando el trasiego de la vida desbordaba el Mississippi y la esclavitud estaba a la orden del da; eran los aos del antebellum, antes de que la guerra de Secesin transformara la historia de Estados Unidos. Sin embargo, mientras Tom Sawyer forma una banda de piratas para ir en busca de un tesoro enterrado, o cuando est en casa compartiendo un brebaje con el gato de su ta Polly, lo que se proyecta no es solo el mundo rural de los estado sureos en el siglo XIX, sino la ilusin de una infancia eterna. Esta edicin, en una traduccin de Simn Santains, se abre con una introduccin del reconocido experto en Mark Twain R. Kent Rasmussen, donde defiende la capacidad del autor para fascinar a lectores de cualquier edad a travs de una mirada irnica que contrasta con las fechoras de Tom Sawyer, uno de los personajes ms emblemticos de la literatura estadounidense. William Faulkner dijo sobre Mark Twain...
«El padre de la literature norteamericana. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain is an 1876 novel about a young boy growing up along the Mississippi River. The story is set in the fictional town of St. Petersburg, inspired by Hannibal, Missouri, where Twain lived. Tom Sawyer lives with his Aunt Polly and his half-brother Sid. Tom dirties his clothes in a fight and is made to whitewash the fence the next day as punishment. He cleverly persuades his friends to trade him small treasures for the privilege of doing his work. He then trades the treasures for Sunday School tickets which one normally receives for memorizing verses, redeeming them for a Bible, much to the surprise and bewilderment of the superintendent who thought "it was simply preposterous that this boy had warehoused two thousand sheaves of Scriptural wisdom on his premises--a dozen would strain his capacity, without a doubt." Tom falls in love with Becky Thatcher, a new girl in town, and persuades her to get "engaged" by kissing him. But their romance collapses when she learns Tom has been "engaged" previously to Amy Lawrence. Shortly after Becky shuns him, he accompanies Huckleberry Finn to the graveyard at night, where they witness the murder of Dr. Robinson.
