It opens your eyes to how people lived in the times of slavery. The local dialect used for much of it was sometimes difficult to understand; had to reread sentences.

In rereading Huck Finn as an adult I took so much more away from it than as a high school student. Of course, there are the social issues where most want to focus, but I looked at if from the adventure. I realized how limited I have been when it come to true adventures - tackling something/anything with an unknown outcome. Huck's ability to seek, survive and enjoy adventures stirred me to be a little more adventurous! I also enjoyed the friendship between Jim and Huck and the wisdom they shared barring education and civilization. What do you really have to have to have all you want?

This book is Very fine
