Abstract

Mark Twain's The Adventures of tom sawyer, his seminal 1876 novel, has been both lauded and decried by multitudes of readers who almost universally regard Twain in a favorable light. Negative reviews of this work are found most easily among admitted Twain fans-something that seems to stem from the inevitable comparisons to Twain's other works, most notably The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Despite mixed reviews, tom sawyer is an important work, particularly for understanding Twain's motivations his own life.
