Harrison started his Classic Tales Podcast back in 2007, wanting to breathe new life into classic stories. He masterfully plays with a wide array of voices and accents and has since then produced over 500 audiobooks. Now in collaboration with SAGA Egmont, his engaging narration of these famous classics is available to readers everywhere.Mark Twain was an American writer who lived in the period 1835-1910. His works combine humor, social criticism and moralism. His literary legacy consists of many travel narratives such as "The Innocents Abroad" and "Life on the Mississippi" but he gained wide popularity with his adventure stories of boyhood "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" and "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" which was called by some the first Great American Novel. Although many of Mark Twain’s works have been censored at times for various reasons, he is held to have been America’s "greatest humorist" by some and "the father of American literature" by others.

Auteur

  • Mark Twain (auteur)

    Mark Twain, de son vrai nom Samuel Clemens, est né en 1835 dans le Missouri et mort en 1910 dans le Connecticut. Il est l’un des premiers auteurs américains à utiliser ses origines sudistes pour créer ses personnages et situations romanesques. Lorsque la guerre de Sécession éclate, il fuit dans les montagnes du Nevada et devient chercheur d’or, cette expérience donnera lieu à des romans discrets (À la dure, en 1872). C’est avec la publication en 1876 de Tom Sawyer puis en 1885 d’Huckleberry Finn, que Mark Twain devient connu du grand public. La reconnaissance littéraire ne viendra que plus tard, avec les commentaires d’Hemingway et de Faulkner, qui voient en Mark Twain le père fondateur du roman américain.
