Story
The Saint Petersburg where this story takes place hasn't much to do with the Russian Metropolis, nor with the port in Tampa bay. In the edge of the Mississippi, slightly in the North of Saint-Louis, this village more resembles to these tiny towns where the passage of an itinerant comedian troupe is an unforgettable event... At the border of the village, in a little wood house like the ones we used to build in the middle of the 19th century, lives Thomas Sawyer. Since his parents were dead, he has been living with his brother Syd at his Aunt Polly's, who brings them up as if they were her own children. But it's hard for the poor women to teach anything to this tearaway of Tom, who spends much more time fishing or playing the pirates than going to the Mass or to school. It's the little adventures and the great dreams of this child hungry for liberty that tales "Tom Sawyer".
