Etat : Fair. Rich in color and humor, this great novel follows the adventures of Huckleberry Finn and vividly recreates the world, the people, and the language that Mark Twain knew and loved from his own years on the frontier of the Mississippi. He has no mother, his father is a brutal drunkard, and he sleeps in a hogshead. He's Huck Finn, a homeless waif, a liar and thief on occasion, and a casual rebel against respectability. But on the day he encounters another fugitive from trouble, a runaway slave named Jim, he also finds-for the first time in his life-love, acceptance, and a sense of responsibility. And it is in the exciting and moving story of these two outcasts fleeing down the Mississippi on a raft that a wonderful metamorphosis occurs. The boy nobody wants becomes a courageous human being with a sense of his own destiny. Includes an Introduction by Padgett Powell and an Afterword by Jayne Anne Phillips.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Samuel Clemens - or "Mark Twain" - came to California in May of 1864, arriving in San Francisco. Later that year he lived in Angel's Camp, where he mined for a time. It was in Angel's Camp that he heard the story of the Jumping Frog. He sent the story East, and it was first published Novenber 18, 1865, in the New York Saturday Press. Immediately popular, it was reprinted on December 16, 1865, in the Californian and was on its way to becoming the story of the year.The story was reprinted by Twain in 1875 as "The Jumping Frog," and this book is a reprint of the 1875 edition. The book contains all the original illustrations, and in addition a number of contemporary wood engravings showing daily life of miners in the region.The book actually contains two versions of the story: a straightforward telling of the story followed by a hilarious version that Twain says is a retranslation of the story as it had appeared in a French publication but "clawed back from the French into a civilized language.".…

Etat : Fair. Mark Twain's beloved masterpiece of boyhood-with an afterword by Alfred Kazin "All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn. It's the best book we've had."-Ernest Hemingway "You don't know about me without you have read a book by the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer; but that ain't no matter. That book was made by Mr. Mark Twain, and he told the truth, mainly." Thus begins The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Mark Twain's classic story about a young boy and his journey down the Mississippi. Hilariously picaresque, epic in scope, alive with the poetry and vigor of the American people, this was the first great novel to speak in a truly American voice. Influencing subsequent generations of writers-from Sherwood Anderson to Twain's fellow Missourian, T. S. Eliot, from Ernest Hemingway and William Faulkner to J. D. Salinger-Huckleberry Finn, like the river that flows through its pages, is one of the great sources that nourished and still nourishes the literature of America.…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Introduction by Frank Conroy Commentary by William Dean Howells, Athenaeum, The Illustrated London News, and Hartford Christian Secretary Nominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS'sThe Great American Read This irresistible tale of the adventures of two friends growing up in frontier America is one of Mark Twain's most popular novels. The farcical, colorful, and poignant escapades of Tom and his friend Huckleberry Finn brilliantly depict the humor and pathos of growing up on the geographic and cultural rim of nineteenth-century America. Originally intended for children, the book transcends genre in its magical depiction of innocence and possibility, and is now regarded as one of Twain's masterpieces. As Frank Conroy observes in his Introduction, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer "has become a sacred text within the body of American literature."

Paperback. Etat : Good. Edited by Joseph Pearce Contributors to this volume: Anthony J. Berret, S.J. William F. Byrne John Francis Devanny Jr. Mary R. Reichardt Thomas W. Stanford III Aaron Urbanczyk Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is, according to many critics and fond readers, the great American novel. Full of vibrant American characters, intriguing regional dialects and folkways, and down-home good humor, it also hits Americans in one of their greatest and on-going sore spots: the fraught issue of racism. As Huck and Jim float down the Mississippi and encounter all manner of people and situations, and as Huck struggles mightily with his conscience concerning Jim, the novel strongly invites a moral and religious perspective. In this new edition, Mary R. Reichardt's introduction places the book in its historical and biographical context, and several critical articles examine such issues as the book's moral implications, religious contexts, and status as an American epic. Mary R. Reichardt, the editor of this edition, is a professor of literature in the Catholic Studies department at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul MN. The Ignatius Critical Editions represent a tradition-oriented alternative to popular textbook series such as the Norton Critical Editions or Oxford World Classics, and are designed to concentrate on traditional readings of the Classics of world literature. While many modern critical editions have succumbed to the fads of modernism and post-modernism, this series will concentrate on tradition-oriented criticism of these great works. Edited by acclaimed literary biographer, Joseph Pearce, the Ignatius Critical Editions will ensure that traditional moral readings of the works are given prominence, instead of the feminist, or deconstructionist readings that often proliferate in other series of 'critical editions'. As such, they represent a genuine extension of consumer-choice, enabling educators, students and lovers of good literature to buy editions of classic literary works without having to 'buy into' the ideologies of secular fundamentalism. The series is ideal for anyone wishing to understand great works of western civilization, enabling the modern reader to enjoy these classics in the company of some of the finest literature professors alive today.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Determined that her baby son Tom shall not share her fate and remain in slavery, Roxy secretly exchanges him with his playmate Chambers, the son of her master. The two boys' lives in the quiet Missouri town of Dawson's Landing remain entwined even though they take very different directions. The indulged Tom (now heir to a fortune rightfully that of Chambers) goes to Yale, where he learns how to drink and gamble, while Chambers looks set to remain a subservient drudge. But then a strange sequence of events begins - one in which the much-derided lawyer, 'Pudd'nhead' Wilson, has a key part to play - and changes everything. Darkly ironic, blending farce and tragedy, Pudd'nhead Wilson is a complex and fascinating depiction of human nature under slavery.…
