I've read several books this semester, all of them are interesting and amusing.One of them is The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, it made me laugh while I was reading and left me a very deep impreion.The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is authored by Mark Twain who is one of the greatest writers in American and is lauded as the “greatest American humorist of his age”.William Faulkner call him “the father of American literature”.Mark Twain wrote many long novel and short stories.His writings are famous for being humorous,resourceful and witty which poe a strong local American flavor and are liked and much appreciated by many people of not only America but also the world over.The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, is a claical work of Mark Twain, it tells the story of a teenage Huckleberry Finn, who is a misfit and escapes from the civilization society.During his flee, he comes acro Jim, an escaping slave, and the two decide to go away together.In the course of their perilous journey, Huck and Jim meet adventure, danger, and a cost of characters who are sometimes menacing and often hilarious.And in the winding and adventurous, Huck and Jim build up a permanent
friendship that breaks down the barrier between the White and the Black.This book is noted for its colorful description of people and places along the Miiippi River.The usage of first person makes the readers feel truly about the story and makes the distance between the writer and the
reader shortened.The famous novelist Hemingway summed up the great
importance of this novel “All American literature comes from one book
by Mark Twain called The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn[...]the best
book we've had.All American writing comes from that.There was
nothing before.There has been nothing as good since”.The Adventures of
Huckleberry Finn is very popular both among children and adults.And it
is not only widely admired in America but also enjoys a huge succe all
over the world.The protagonist of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a boy
named Huckleberry Finn.Huck is a teenage with many good qualities.He is a very naughty boy and he dose not like things which is customary
and fixed.He wears old rags and sleeps in sugar-hogshead.Huck does not
like school, when he has to go to school, he feel dull and boring.He likes
to go out with Tom at midnight.When Huck lives with the widow, he
often goes out thought the window.And he also fools Jim with Tom.Huck is very brave and intelligent.When he faces dangers, he does not
escape but confronts them and tries his best to settle them.Huck also
likes to be free.For Huck, society imposes restriction, and civilization is
artificial and colorle.In contrast, the life on the river represents freedom
and the opportunity to observe natural beauty.So when Huck was locked
by his father, he ran away, not only from his father but also from the
widow.Huck is an outcast without education.He comes from the very
lowest level of society.His father is the poor town drunkard who would
willingly commit any crime just for the pure pleasure of it.Huck is a motherle and homele outcast, sleeping in barrels, eating scraps and leavings and dreed in rags.He dislikes civilized ways because they are personally restrictive and hard.He lives with Widow Douglas who wants to civilize him, but he likes to be free.Thought the widow treats him friendly, he finds it is difficult for him to endure the life style of the widow.When he can not endure any more, he runs away.Huck is a kind boy, thought he sometimes plays jokes on others, he does not mean harm.When he told Jim a lie and fooled him by saying they did not get apart but just Jim dreamed it.He felt sorry and ashamed when he noticed Jim's care and worry.Huck is only a boy, after all, and therefore fallible.Imperfect as he is, Huck represents what anyone is capable of becoming: a thinking, feeling human being rather than a mere cog in the machine of society.Apparently, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn describes a winding and adventurous journey.But in fact, the volume of novel does not only belong to teenagers' story.Huck aerts the values of individualized experience against the threatening incubus of civilization.It is this which makes it so much more than a “kind of companion to Tom Sawyer”, which makes it, in fact, one of the great modern novels.This novel contributes to reflecting the desire of the public to abrogate the bondage of slavery and seek independence and liberty.
