(4,812 Sterne; 530 Bewertungen)

Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (Tom Sawyer's Comrade), often shortened to Huck Finn, is a novel written by Mark Twain and published in 1884. It is commonly regarded as one of the Great American Novels, and is one of the first major American novels written in the vernacular, characterized by local color regionalism. It is told in the first person by Huckleberry "Huck" Finn, best friend of Tom Sawyer and narrator of two other Twain novels.

The book is noted for its colorful description of people and places along the Mississippi River. By satirizing a Southern antebellum society that was already anachronistic at the time, 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.

The book has been popular with young readers since its publication and is taken as a sequel to The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. It has also been the continued object of study by serious literary critics. The book was criticized upon release because of its coarse language, and became even more controversial in the 20th century because of its perceived use of racial stereotypes and because of its frequent use of the "N" racial slur.

wonderful!

(5 Sterne)

beautifully narrated, dense story line, love the use of the vernacular of the time. As an educated black man I find no problem with this book, I knew how those times were.

Thoroughly enjoyed this book

As a 52 year old I never read this book as a child or in school. the narrator or reader of this book did a great job in distinguishing each character. it was easy to follow and understand. the. Accents and reading of the characters was performed wonderfully.

I love listening to John Greenman!!

When I was in elementary school in the late 1940s to early 1950s, I’m not certain of what grade I was in, but one of my teachers read the book or excerpts from it to our class at the end of each day. She also read “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer” to us and I think she enjoyed reading them as much as we enjoyed listening to her. However, she did leave out all of the “N-word” language. Whenever one of my grandchildren ask what I did for fun when I was growing up, I tell them to Google Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. There was a dense forrest and the Wolf River, a tributary of the Mississippi River, that flowed through it, all within a 10 minute walk from my home. Today, at 77 years of age, those seven decades-old memories come visiting more and more. Mick Bradford- Shelby County, Tennessee.

This book is a gem! I'm in awe about the history of blacks way back when and what freedom really means. John Greenman gives life to the characters and the story. Thank you.
