The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn 3
When you first open the book of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn you'll notice a notice and an explanatory written by the one and only Mark Twain himself. The explanatory explains how Mark Twain uses language and dialect to differentiate between certain characters. "I make this explanation for the reason that without it many readers would suppose that all these characters were trying to talk alike and not succeeding." The notice basically says that for anyone who attempts to find a meaning, moral, plot, and or motive, will be shot. So shoot Mr. Brovsky, his first hour class, and myself. It's surprising to see that this book went by so quickly for me. The more I enjoy a book, the faster it goes by for me. Now back to finding a plot. What I liked especially about this book was it's linear time line. There wasn't that much jumping around in time. Everything came after everything else. The book is divided into three basic sections: Life before the river, life on the river, and life after the riv
Mark Twain has been labeled by critics as a funny man and not a great writer, yet I believe that he is a great writer because he can incorporate his humor into a 13 year old boy's way of life. Huck Finn as the hero of this book shows that Mark Twain knows what the reader has always wanted to be. Mark Twain stylizes the ultimate dream of just getting away from everything. To leave things behind in search of fun and adventure. I know sometimes I feel like I just want to run away, like how I am feeling right now with this paper. Huck is the kind of person I want to be. To rough it, to have adventure, and to leave behind all my worries. And in a way I can when I'm reading this book. I feel a part of the adventures without having to actually run away. When I hear that this great book has been banned in some places, I wonder if it's been banned because of the frequent use of "the word" or because "they" don't want kids to realize that adventures can be good, even if it has to involve running away.
