  • The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

    Mark Twain

    Paperback (Dover Publications, Dec. 18, 2018)
    "You don't know about me, without you have read a book by the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, but that ain't no matter. That book was made by Mr. Mark Twain, and he told the truth, mainly. There was things which he stretched, but mainly he told the truth." With these words, Huckleberry Finn draws us into the narrative that forever changed the course of American literature. Huck's view of Southern life in the years leading up to the Civil War, delivered with a country boy's accent, sparked a new realism in storytelling. Huck's voice is that of an outsider, fleeing the authority figures attempting to "sivilize" him. His companion, Jim, is a runaway slave whose bid for freedom is even more desperate. Their story — raising issues of prejudice and racism, slavery and freedom — faces questions no American novel had ever addressed. Loaded with hilarious escapades and unforgettable characters, this tale of adventures along the Mississippi River provides thought-provoking entertainment.

  • The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

    Garrison Keillor, Mark Twain

    Audio CD (HighBridge Audio, May 1, 2003)
    First published in 1884, Mark Twain's The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a masterpiece of world literature. Narrated by Huck himself in his artless vernacular, it tells of his voyage down the Mississippi with a runaway slave named Jim. As the two journey downstream on a raft, Huck's vivid descriptions capture the sights, smells, sounds, and rhythms of life on the great river. As they encounter traveling actors, con men, lynch mobs, thieves, and Southern gentility, his shrewd comments reveal the dark side of human nature. By the end of the story, Huck has learned about the dignity and worth of human life―and Twain has exposed the moral blindness of the "respectable" slave-holding society in which he lives. Huckleberry Finn was Twain's greatest creation. Garrison Keillor approaches it with the respect and affection it deserves. "This is an abridgement of Mark Twain's book, keeping the parts I loved as a boy―Huck's story, the big river at night, the boasting of the raftsmen, the Duke and the Dauphin, the lynching, the feud―and lopping off the last third of the book, where Tom Sawyer comes in and makes a big production of freeing Jim. I had Huck free him instead. If you enjoy the reading, I am sure Mr. Twain will forgive me." ―Garrison Keillor

  • The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

    Mark Twain

    Paperback (Independently published, March 24, 2018)
    Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (often shortened to Huck Finn) is a novel written by American humorist Mark Twain. It is commonly used and accounted as one of the first Great American Novels. It is also one of the first major American novels written using Local Color Regionalism, or vernacular, told in the first person by the eponymous Huckleberry "Huck" Finn, best friend of Tom Sawyer and hero of three other Mark Twain books. The book is noted for its colorful description of people and places along the Mississippi River. By satirizing Southern antebellum society that was already a quarter-century in the past by the time of publication, the book is an often scathing look at entrenched attitudes, particularly racism. The drifting journey of Huck and his friend Jim, a runaway slave, down the Mississippi River on their raft may be one of the most enduring images of escape and freedom in all of American literature.

    eBook (GoodBook Classics, Dec. 23, 2014)
    Of all the contenders for the title of The Great American Novel, none has a better claim than The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Intended at first as a simple story of a boy's adventures in the Mississippi Valley - a sequel to The Adventures of Tom Sawyer - the book grew and matured under Twain's hand into a work of immeasurable richness and complexity.Quotes from the book:“All right, then, I'll go to hell.”“Just because you’re taught that something’s right and everyone believes it’s right, it don’t make it right.”“That is just the way with some people. They get down on a thing when they don’t know nothing about it.”Readers' reviews:“All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn.” (Ernest Hemingway)“Hemingway said American fiction begins and ends with Huck Finn, and he's right. Twain's most famous novel is a tour de force.” (Nathan Ellers, goodreads.com)“Huck's adventures are hugely entertaining. Furthermore, it is an interesting commentary on 19th Century America. Huck's interactions with Jim seem to be subversive of the concept of slavery and highlight the foolishness of white attitudes toward blacks.” (Brandon Nelson, goodreads.com)
