"The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" is a novel by Mark Twain that tells the story
of a boy growing up along the Mississippi River. Tom Sawyer, the main
character, has various adventures with his friend Huckleberry Finn. Despite
initially being a commercial failure, the book became Twain's best-selling
work during his lifetime. The plot follows Tom, an orphan living with his Aunt
Polly and half-brother Sid in St. Petersburg, Missouri. Tom engages in
mischievous activities, falls in love with a girl named Becky Thatcher, and
witnesses a murder committed by Injun Joe. He and Huck swear to keep the
murder a secret, leading to constant fear for their lives. The novel combines
humor, satire, and social criticism, and is considered a masterpiece of
American literature. It has been adapted into various forms, including ballet,
theater, and video games.
