Sinossi

Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a picaresque novel by Mark Twain, published in 1884–1885. Narrated in vernacular English, it follows young Huck Finn as he escapes an abusive father and makes his way down the Mississippi River with Jim, an enslaved man pursuing freedom. Along the journey, Huck and Jim encounter a range of people and communities, including feuding families and con artists, while facing situations that test Huck’s sense of right and wrong. Set in the antebellum South, the story builds on Huck’s earlier life in Tom Sawyer and is noted for its portrayal of boyhood and its satirical look at racism and society.
