“Huckleberry Finn,” a book written by Mark Twain, is a famous American story. But, some schools in the U.S. don’t let students read it. Even though it is an important book, some people don’t like how it talks about race and uses bad language. It has now a censored version, too.
I’m not bothered by any of the issues raised in the article.
My biggest problem with the book is a major plot hole: why on Earth would Jim go along on a trip headed SOUTH down the Mississippi River?
It makes a bit of sense because the plan was to arrive in Cairo, which is in Illinois, a non-slave state
Thanks. It’s been a LONG time since I read the book, and I forgot that detail.
I’ve read it way too many times. It’s burned into my memory.
@HappyMeatbag Because that is the way the river flows and they only had a raft.
