Pustolovine Huckleberryja Finna

Pustolovine Huckleberryja Finna

Mark Twain

The plot of this adventure novel takes place on the American Mississippi River and its banks at a time when steamships sailed this vast river, during the author's childhood.

The novel Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain continues the story of Huckleberry Finn, a boy who flees civilization and his abusive father, seeking freedom on the Mississippi River. He is joined on his journey by a runaway slave, Jim, with whom he develops a deep friendship. Through their adventures together, Twain portrays 19th-century American society, especially racism, hypocrisy, and social injustice.

Huck and Jim encounter numerous characters and obstacles: from the deceitful Duke and King who exploit gullible people, to the dangers of slavery and the law. Through all these situations, Huck confronts his own conscience – should he help the runaway slave or turn him in, in order to adhere to social norms? In the end, he decides to follow his heart and help Jim, despite the morals and laws of the time.

The novel is written from Huck's perspective, in lively, colloquial language, which makes it authentic and relatable. Twain uses irony and humor to criticize society and emphasize the importance of individual freedom and humanity.

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is considered a masterpiece of American literature and one of the first novels to directly address the issue of racism, through the prism of a child's innocence and pursuit of justice.
