Biographie de Mark Twain
Mark Twain is one of America's greatest writers. Author of numerous short stories, comedies, historical fantasies and novels, he is now most famous for The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, and its sequel, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, both of which drew heavily from his childhood experiences. Although the personal difficulties that befell him in his final years gave a sombre and troubled tone to his later writings, his work is characterised by an often ingenious use of comedy and satire.
