The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

كتاب The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
المؤلف: Mark Juain

"The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" is an American novel by" Mark Twain" first published in 1885. It is notable for its prose, written entirely in vernacular English with rich regional colouring, painting a vivid picture of the 19th Century American South. It is often referred to as the 'Great American Novel' because of the theme that addresses the big concern of America and also because it employs the language of the ordinary inhabitants of the South. It is narrated in the first person by a teenage boy, "Huck", who runs away from an abusive father and embarks on a great adventure on a raft on the Mississippi River, during which he encounters a host of characters. The several episodes in the adventure are presented in a picaresque structure as "Huck" moves on down the river, meeting new people as he goes.
