Twain began his career writing light, humorous verse, but he became a chronicler of the vanities, hypocrisies, and murderous acts of mankind. At mid-career, he combined rich humor, sturdy narrative, and social criticism in Huckleberry Finn. He was a master of rendering colloquial speech and helped to create and popularize a distinctive American literature built on American themes and language. A complete bibliography of Twain's works is nearly impossible to compile because of the vast number of pieces he wrote (often in obscure newspapers) and his use of several different pen names. This book contains more than 30 of the most famous and significant works of Mark Twain.

Vingt ans en 1940, une famille égoïste, l'écoeurement d'une défaite, cela suffit-il à expliquer le drame d'une jeunesse perdue ? Jean-Marie Dumoulin s'est battu sous l'uniforme allemand de la L.V.F. avant de devenir maquisard, puis brillant officier de la 1re armée française. Est-il un traître ? Jeune, beau, intelligent, séduisant pour toutes les femmes, il ne cesse de se poser des questions sur son passé, sur son présent. L'amour passionné, puis quasi maternel de Senora, une femme plus âgée qui l'a sauvé presque malgré lui, les amis sincères qu'il s'est fait grâce à son charme, seront-ils une protection suffisante contre les embûches de notre époque troublée ? De nos jours Chérubin a connu la guerre avant l'amour et ce qu'il cherche à retrouver avant tout, c'est lui-même.
