Mark Twain, whose real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, was an American writer, journalist and humorist born on November 30, 1835, in Florida, Missouri. He is considered one of the most important figures in American literature. He grew up in Hannibal, a small town on the Mississippi River, which later inspired many of his stories.Before becoming a famous writer, Twain worked as a printer, a journalist and a riverboat pilot. These experiences influenced his writing and gave him a deep understanding of American society. His most famous novels are The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884). Through humour, irony and adventure, he described everyday life, friendship, freedom and social injustice, especially slavery and racism.Twain's writing style was simple, lively and full of humour. He often used regional language and realistic characters to represent ordinary Americans. He died on April 21, 1910, in Connecticut, leaving behind a rich literary legacy. Today, Mark Twain is remembered as one of the greatest American writers of all time.Public Domain
