The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
Overview & Summary
Huck Finn escapes his abusive father by faking his own death and fleeing down the Mississippi River on a raft with Jim, an enslaved man also seeking freedom, and together they encounter con men, feuding families, and Huck's own evolving moral conscience about slavery and friendship. Mark Twain's 1884 novel is widely considered one of the great American novels, celebrated for its vernacular voice even as its use of racial language and stereotypes remains a subject of ongoing debate and discussion.
