eBooks di Mark Twain editi da Word Well Books

Mark Twain  pseudonimo di Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835 - 1910) è uno dei più importanti autori della letteratura nordamericana. Il suo nome deriva da un’espressione in uso all’epoca sui battelli del Mississipi (“Marca due” riferito alla profondità del fiume). La sua narrativa popolare nello stile e nei contenuti il senso dell’humor unito all’ironia graffiante e alla vena anti-imperialista ne fanno tuttora uno degli autori più amati e un classico della letteratura mondiale. Celebre il giudizio di Ernst Hemingway: “Tutta la letteratura moderna statunitense viene da un libro di Mark Twain  Huckleberry Finn”.
