by Mark Twain
Published 1884
This was so much more than I expected. My idea of Huckleberry Finn was very much based on the 70’s T.V programme, which I loved. Lots of running around barefoot, having adventures and refusing to be hemmed in by convention. I didn’t realise that Earnest Hemingway had said that “all modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn”; or that I would find a story about two, marginalised people on the run for their freedom. $300 dollar reward for Jim, $200 for Huck.
