Mark Twain is the founder of American critical realism literature and a world-famous master of short stories. He experienced the development process of the United States from "liberal" capitalism to imperialism, as well as the dark social reality and inhumane racial discrimination, condemned the evil of slavery, sang the praises of the fine qualities of black slaves, and propagated the progressive proposition that everyone should enjoy the right of freedom and annihilation regardless of race. His early works are regarded as epoch-making realist works in the history of American literature.

Representative works include ** "Million Pounds", "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn", "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" and so on.

Mark Twain was born on November 30, 1835, in Florida, Missouri, USA, to a family of poor lawyers. He was the sixth of seven children. His father was a local lawyer with a meager income and a poor family.

Mark Twain Jr. had to work when he was in school. His father died when he was eleven years old, and he began working independently, first as an apprentice in a printing house, as a newspaper courier and typesetter, and later as a sailor and helmsman on the Mississippi River.

In the fall of 1839, Mark Twain's family moved to a port city on the Mississippi River in Hannibal, Missouri, which became the inspiration for the city of St. Petersburg in his later books, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Wanderings of a Naughty Boy.

At that time, Missouri was a federal slave state, and the young Twain began to learn about slavery, which became the subject of his later adventures**. Mark Twain was colorblind, and this provoked a witty joke in his social circles.
