Product Description

To escape from his violent & drunken father, a 13-year-old boy from the wrong side of the tracks, Huckleberry Finn, fakes his own death & floats away on a raft down the Mississippi with Jim, a runaway slave.

In a series of unforgettable adventures narrated by Huck, they encounter a cross-section of characters from slave-hunters, & conmen to feuding aristocrats.

This was the first major American novel to be written in the vernacular, a dark & funny satire that exposes the bigotry & hypocrisy of provincial America during Mark Twains lifetime.
