The Adventures of Tom Sawyer《汤姆·索亚历险记》是美国小说家马克·吐温1876年发表的代表作品，小说的故事发生在19世纪上半世纪美国密西西比河畔的一个普通小镇上。主人公汤姆·索亚天真活泼、敢于探险、追求自由，不堪忍受束缚个性、枯燥乏味的生活，幻想干一番英雄事业。适合英语专业学生及对经典英语文学作品感兴趣的读者。

《汤姆·索亚历险记》是马克·吐温的经典名作，记述了主人公汤姆·索亚因反对死板严格的家庭生活，厌烦学校里枯燥乏味的功课，所以离家出走，和他的小伙伴哈克贝利费恩一道去冒险。他梦想着有朝一日能成为统帅众强盗的头领。社会的种种弊病和虚伪的宗教、庸人的市民，这一切都随着汤姆·索亚的历险过程一一展 现，故事情节走伏跌宕，扣人心弦。马克·吐温对儿童心理的观察精细入微，描写合情合理。《汤姆·索亚历险记》以其浓厚的深具地方特色的幽默和对人物敏锐观察，一跃成为最伟大的儿童文学作品，也是一首美国“黄金时代”的田园牧歌。

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.

Mark Twain was the pen name of Samuel Langhorne Clemens, who was born in Missouri in 1835 and died in Connecticut in 1910. He worked as a Mississippi riverboat pilot, a journalist, and a travel writer before achieving tremendous popularity as a humorist and novelist.
