Life on the Mississippi

تأليف Mark Twain · 65 أجزاء · about 11 hours 54 minutes للقراءة

مرحبا, اسمي Finn وسأساعدك على فهم هذا الكتاب.

إليك الشرح, مبسطا كأن عمرك 10 سنوات:

قبل أن يشتهر Mark Twain، كان صبيا في بلدة نهرية يريد شيئا واحدا: العمل على باخرة نهرية. يروي هذا الكتاب كيف أصبح متدربا لدى ربان وتعلم نهر Mississippi العظيم عن ظهر قلب، كل منعطف وضفة وعبور، تحت معلم قاس اسمه Bixby. لاحقا، ككاتب مشهور، يركب النهر مجددا فيجده تغير. إنه مضحك ودافئ ومليء بمعارف النهر.
