Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
Huck Finn escapes his abusive father and travels down the Mississippi on a raft with Jim, an enslaved man seeking freedom. Their journey brings them into storms, feuds, frauds, violence, and encounters that expose the moral contradictions of the society Huck has been taught to accept. Huck's growing loyalty to Jim forces him to choose between his conscience and rules presented to him as religious and lawful. Comic, troubling, and foundational, this novel suits readers prepared for racist language and depictions while engaging a powerful story about friendship, freedom, American hypocrisy, and a boy learning to question inherited wrong.
