«Les aventures de Tom Sawyer» is Mark Twain's adventure novel in a Catalan edition from Editorial Vicens Vives, in paperback (317 pages).
The novel follows the mischief of young Tom Sawyer on the banks of the Mississippi: from whitewashing a fence as punishment to spending a night in the cemetery with Huckleberry Finn, where he witnesses a crime. Beneath the humorous tone lurk superstition, injustice, and the hypocrisy of the adult world.
First installment of the Adventures of Tom and Huck series. Work originally published in 1876, in this edition part of the Aula de Lletres collection.
A classic of youth and adventure literature, suitable for young readers and for those approaching Mark Twain for the first time.
