Tom Sawyer détective

Du Nevada à la Californie, de Saint-Louis à San Francisco, À la dure raconte sept années d'aventures burlesques et tumultueuses d'un pied-tendre absolument maladroit, le genre à déclencher un vaste incendie tandis qu'il se prépare juste à dîner au bord d'un lac, ou à être pris dans une tempête de neige et se préparer à y mourir alors qu'il se trouve à quelques mètres d'un refuge. Ode comique à la nature sauvage, livre effervescent, à la fois débridé et d'une maîtrise narrative absolue, voici le Far West du père du roman américain, Mark Twain, le maître de Hemingway et Faulkner, Dos Passos et Steinbeck !

A la dure

Beloved for more than a century, Mark Twain's The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a sequel to The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and continues the adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Tom Sawyer, and Jim as they travel the Mississippi river valley. Criticized for its colloquial language and use of racial stereotypes and slurs, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn exposes and challenges racist attitudes in the Southern United States at the close of the 19th century.

Oeuvres

"Der Prinz und der Bettelknabe" (engl. "The Prince and the Pauper") ist ein historischer Roman von Mark Twain, den dieser 1881 schrieb. 1956 erschien die deutsche Erstausgabe. Die Geschichte spielt Mitte des 16. Jahrhunderts und handelt von zwei Jungen, die einander so ähnlich sehen wie eineiige Zwillinge, aber unter völlig unterschiedlichen Bedingungen aufwachsen: Der Bettelknabe Tom Canty und der Sohn Heinrichs VIII., Prinz Edward. Das Buch ist Twains erster historischer Roman, auf den später unter anderem "Ein Yankee am Hofe des König Artus" folgte. In diesem Roman benutzt Twain einen für ihn ungewöhnlichen Stil, der an Charles Dickens erinnert.

The Awful German Language

"TOM!"

No answer.

"TOM!"

No answer.

"What's gone with that boy, I wonder? You TOM!"

No answer.

The old lady pulled her spectacles down and looked over them about the room; then she put them up and looked out under them. She seldom or never looked through them for so small a thing as a boy; they were her state pair, the pride of her heart, and were built for "style, " not service-she could have seen through a pair of stove-lids just as well. She looked perplexed for a moment, and then said, not fiercely, but still loud enough for the furniture to hear:

"Well, I lay if I get hold of you I'll-"

She did not finish, for by this time she was bending down and punching under the bed with the broom, and so she needed breath to punctuate the punches with. She resurrected nothing but the cat.

"I never did see the beat of that boy!"
