DescriptionAh, childhood.
Long summer days, barefoot, fishing, swimming, laughter, pocket knives, dirty hands, dirty faces, sweaty brows, trouble, joy.
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is an unmistakable celebration of youth and in particular boyhood.
At the same time, it's an extended commentary on adulthood, grownups, society, and culture.
And that commentary largely consists of a long, exaggerated eye-roll.
Welcome to one of the great American stories.
Welcome to the wit and the wonder of one of America's greatest writers.
