Viac o knihe

Mark Twain was one of the nineteenth century's greatest chroniclers of childhood, and of all his works his beloved novel The Adventures of Tom Sawyer most enchantingly and timelessly captures the sheer pleasure of being a boy. Tom Sawyer is as clever, imaginative, and resourceful as he is reckless and mischievous, whether conning his friends into painting a fence, playing pirates with his pal Huck Finn, witnessing his own funeral, or helping to catch a murderer. Twain’s novel glows with nostalgia for the Mississippi River towns of his youth and sparkles with his famous humor, but it is also woven throughout with a subtle awareness of the injustices and complexities of the old South that Twain so memorably portrays.

Originál je vynikající, v překladu Františka Gela se ale jeho jazyková jedinečnost vytrácí, protože román původně psaný dobovým místním dialektem je přeložen z naprosté většiny spisovně. Doporučuji novější překlad od Jany Mertinové nebo, v nejlepším případě, originál.

Dle mého názoru se jedná o knihu, kterou by si měl přečíst každý.
