Description: Adventures of Huckleberry Finn Adventures of Huckleberry Finn Mark Twain Adventures of Huckleberry Finn captures the essence of a time when most Americans lived on farms and worked the land. We were on it, immersed in it, tied to it, and when we traversed it we did so on foot, on horseback, by carriage, and by way of great rivers. The land, or nature, was the element that gave us our sense of place and identity. This was nowhere more true than in the lives of young’uns like Huck Finn, a motherless boy with a violent drunkard for a father. Huck’s a boy of the earth and its rivers. He’s a survivor and nature sustains him. He thumbs his nose at respectability the way nature thumbs its nose at the affectations of city life. He’s the noble savage Rousseau talked about. He‘s a boy’s boy and, after he meets runaway slave, Jim, he becomes a man’s man. Considered by many to be the great American novel from which all American novels descend, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, which Twain described as a “hymn to boyhood”, is one of the rarest of literary accomplishments. It’s a masterpiece wrapped in the folds of a good yarn, a story that’s captivated young and old alike for over a hundred years.
