The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, by Mark Twain
€4.00
Quay Books
Desperate to escape his abusive father and the constraints of the civilized life, young Huck Finn fakes his death and, with the help of his slave friend Jim, embarks on a vagabond life rafting down the Mississippi River.
Yet life is anything but carefree for Huck and Jim. Their travels bring them into contact with scores of rogues, rascals, ruffians, hucksters, and law-abiding citizens who would as soon see Jim returned to his owners and Huck to his Pa.
Looking out for each other, Huck and Jim forge a bond that protects them from the prejudices and bigotry of their time and place, and a society whose rules and regulations seem as perplexing as they are inflexible.
By turns hilarious and heartwarming, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is considered Mark Twain's masterpiece and one of the greatest novels written on the nineteenth-century American experience.
“All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn. American writing comes from that. There was nothing before. There has been nothing as good since.” – Ernest Hemingway
