Adventures Of Huckleberry Finn (100th anniversary edition)

He has no mother, his father is a brutal drunkard, and he sleeps in a hogshead. He's Huck Finn, a homeless waif, a liar and a thief on occasion and a casual rebel against respectability. But on the day that he encounters another fugitive from trouble, a runaway slave named Jim, he also finds for the first time in his life love, acceptance and a sense os resposability. And it is the exciting and moving story of these two outcasts fleeing down the Mississippi on a raft, that a wonderful metamorphosis occurs. The boy nobody wants becomes a human being with a sense of his own destiny and the courage to choose between violating the code of the convencional and betraying the person who needs him most. Rich in color, humor and the adventurous frontier experience of the Mississippi, this great novel vividly recreats the world, the people and the language that Mark Twain knew and loved from his own years on the riverboats. "All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn" - Ernest Hemingway
