One of the most popular and often quoted American writers of the 20th century, a well-known satirist and public figure. The author's literary heritage is very multifaceted and diverse - humorous stories, adventure stories, science fiction, journalism and other genres. But at the same time, in almost every story, Mark Twain promotes humanistic views and defends human rights. Vivid proof of the author's influence is borne out by the words of Nobel laureate Ernest Hemingway, who believed that modern American literature was based on the book "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn." Despite the fact that the writer's work is primarily associated with children's literature, it is worth buying Mark Twain's books for readers of any age and gender - everyone can find something for themselves in them.
