Adventures of Huckleberry Finn first appeared in 1884. The story is narrated by Huck Finn, a young boy who runs away from home to escape his abusive father. He travels down the Mississippi River on a raft, accompanied by Jim, a runaway slave seeking freedom. As they journey together, they encounter a variety of characters and face numerous challenges, all while grappling with issues of morality, racism, and personal freedom.
The book is renowned for its rich depiction of 19th-century American life, its use of regional dialects, and its satirical take on social and political issues. Twain's storytelling and Huck’s rebellious spirit make it a compelling and enduring work in American literature.
