Table of contents

After completing his manuscript, Twain had a copy made of it. It is this copy which was read and annotated by his friend William Dean Howells. Howells and Twain corresponded through fairly informal, handwritten letters discussing many aspects of his works and manuscripts; language choices, character development, as well as racial development and depiction. Twain then made his own corrections based on Howells' comments which he later incorporated in the original manuscript, but some corrections escaped him. The English edition was based on this corrected copy, while the illustrated American edition was based on the original manuscript.

To further complicate matters, Twain was personally concerned with the revision of the proofs of the American edition, which he did not do for the English edition. The American edition is therefore considered the authoritative edition.

A third person narrator describes the experiences of the boys, interspersed with occasional social commentary. In its sequel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn , Mark Twain changes to a first person narrative which takes moral conflicts more personally and thus makes greater social criticism possible. The book has raised controversy for its use of the racial epithet " nigger "; a bowdlerized version aroused indignation among some literary critics.

The book has also gotten criticism for the caricature-like portrayal of Native Americans through the character Injun Joe. He is depicted as malevolent for the sake of malevolence, is not allowed to redeem himself in any way by Twain, dies a pitiful and despairing death in a cave and upon his death is treated as a tourist attraction. Revard suggests that the adults in the novel blame the character's Indian blood as the cause of his evil. He is also a character in Twain's unfinished Schoolhouse Hill. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer has been adapted into comic book form many times:.

Canadian rock band Rush published a song entitled " Tom Sawyer " in , which is inspired by the book. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. This article is about the novel. For other uses, see The Adventures of Tom Sawyer disambiguation. Dewey Decimal.

I never had experience with EP producing abridged texts. Tom Sawyer had blue and Fin had green cover. Check it out on ebay. Hope that helps. Any idea if they ship internationally, say to the UK?

I find many of their books are only within US. Why is that? Their reluctance to mail books abroad is due to copyrights. As a rule, they only ship internationally if the book is in public domain which, according to EU regulations, requires that the author - and, when applicable, the translator - needs to have died in or before. While the whole oeuvre of Mark Twain is well out of copyright by now, with this particular edition of Tom Sawyer there appears to be a problem with the illustrations: Norman Rockwell only died in They were still sealed, which is not a priority for me, but they are like new.

Will have to bring my now redundant copy of huck finn to the used book store. This is one out of two matching sets from regular EP editions one can get, the second being a duo from Mark Twain Classical Works set, but it is not Rockwell illustrated. In the tradition of milking the classics, Huckleberry Finn shall appear in the next year or so :.
