| Summary |
"Tom Sawyer: Koulupojan historia" by Mark Twain is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The story revolves around a young boy named Tom Sawyer, who is known for his mischievous and adventurous spirit as he navigates the challenges of childhood in a small town along the Mississippi River. At the start of the story, we are introduced to Tom as his Aunt Polly searches for him, suspecting he has been up to no good. The opening scene highlights Tom's playful defiance, as he dodges his aunt's attempts to discipline him. We also see glimpses of his relationships with other characters, including his younger half-brother Sid and a young slave boy named Jim. Through a series of humorous interactions and minor escapades, Twain establishes Tom as an imaginative and rebellious child, setting the stage for his upcoming adventures and the lessons he will learn throughout the novel.
