Huckleberry and I both come across as very individualistic. Huckleberry has a great rejection for the values of society. He is escaping them. I am also against many of the "accepted" rules of society however; I lack the river as an escape. My realistic world has no route of escape while Huckleberry's adventure world provides him with such resistance.

An extreme difference between Huckleberry and me is our difference in humor. Huckleberry has no sense of humor. He is merely the narrator of a book filled with satire. He, himself, is very literal minded and realistic. Twain uses Huckleberry Finn's lack of imagination to ensure a factual story creates itself. I, on the other hand, believe everything wil

In a similar light, I find peace through religion as Huckleberry does: "Huckleberry represents mankind's need to retreat (at least from time to time) from the real world and to take solace in the pleasures of religion" (Claro ). Again, our similarities extend further into the church. I, as Huckleberry, also lack attendance in the church and often find myself questioning biblical facts. As in Huckleberry's situation, I find it is people that force me to see religion as indecisive: "The Ten Commandments aren't prefaced with 'If you're in the mood" (Schlessinger 73). Huckleberry and I find hypocrites most enveloped in their religion of choice causing us to fight the idea of religion despite the fact that most everyone is a hypocrite in some way or another.

Along with being inventive, Huckleberry is incredibly sympathetic. After all, he went through with the King and the Duke, it still dishevels him to view them tarred and feathered. This sympathy best displays his love for Jim. Much like Huckleberry, I too, am very sympathetic. I suppose it is a matter of situation because the amount of sympathy all depends on other things. These other things involve the person's living situation and injustices in general. I suppose that explains Huckleberry's desire to humble himself towards Jim...he has viewed Jim's misfortune and strains imagination to attempt to relate.

Huckleberry and I also have similar tempers. We become easily angered when given proper reason. Overall, it takes more than just a few irritating things. People such as Tom being all dramatic finally brings a bit of rage up through Huckleberry while I will joke around a bit about being angry but am actually never truly incredibly angered.

Huckleberry is extremely superstitious. He easily scares himself with superstition: "I got up and turned around in my tracks three times and crossed my breast every time; and then I tied up a little lock of my hair with a thread to keep witches away" (Twain 3). I, on a completely di
