Synopsis "Tom Sawyer, Detective"

Looky here, Huck, Ill tell you one thing thats mighty curious. Up to the time we went out last night the family hadnt heard about Jake Dunlap being murdered. Now the men that chased Hal Clayton and Bud Dixon away would spread the thing around in a half an hour, and every neighbor that heard it would shin out and fly around from one farm to tother and try to be the first to tell the news. Land, they dont have such a big thing as that to tell twice in thirty years! Huck, its mighty strange; I dont understand it.Tom Sawyer, detective (1896) is a sequel of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884), books that he wrote to earn his younger readers esteem. In this book, full of humor and influenced by Conan Doyles novels, young Tom (like Sherlock Holmes) tries to solve a mysterious murder helped by Huckleberry, who parodies Watson.

Samuel Langhorne Clemens, más conocido como Mark Twain, ha pasado a la historia de la literatura gracias al ingenio, humor y picardía que destila su obra. A menudo considerado el Dickens estadounidense, Twain fue periodista, tipógrafo, escritor y, sobre todo, un aventurero incansable. Su sed de aventuras lo llevó en un largo periplo lleno de experiencias: fue aprendiz de piloto, buscó fortuna en las minas de plata, recorrió el mundo dando conferencias y fue nombrado doctor honoris causa por la universidad de Oxford. Todo ello lo inspiró para empezar a escribir pequeños cuadernos de viaje que publicaba en la prensa. Se calcula que llegó a escribir más de 500 obras, entre las que destacan _Las aventuras de Huckelberry Finn_ y _Las aventuras de Tom Sawyer_: dos novelas en las que Twain evoca una infancia inocente y feliz, en la que brillan la ilusión y la rebeldía que preceden a la edad adulta. Mark Twain nació durante una de las apariciones del cometa Halley, y predijo que “se marcharía con él”. Efectivamente, el autor nos dejó el 21 de abril de 1910, a la estela de una nueva visita del cometa. ‍
