Über diesen Titel
Mark Twain grew up in Missouri, which was a slave state during
his childhood. He would later incorporate his formative
experiences of the institution of slavery into his writings. As a
teenager, Twain worked as a printer’s apprentice and later as a
typesetter, during which time he also became a contributor of
articles and humorous sketches to his brother Orion’s
newspaper. On a voyage to New Orleans, Twain decided to
become a steamboat pilot. Unsurprisingly, the Mississippi River
is an important setting in much of Twain’s work. Twain also
spent much of his life travelling across the United States, and
he wrote many books about his own adventures, but he is best
known for his novels The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and
its sequel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885), having written
in the latter what is considered to be the Great American
Novel. Twain died of a heart attack in 1910.
