Maybe I'll appreciate later in life when I don't have to write essays on the symbolism. ( )This book, listed as one of the classics, is about a mischievious boy with his antics and adventures. His adventures are of running away from his alcoholic father and setting a runaway slave free. This book features the noble side of Huck when he made the famous decision that he would go to hell over returning his slave friend back to slavery. Mehr als ein Jugendbuch - ein amerikanischer Klassiker: Wer kennt ihn nicht, den rebellischen Teenager mit dem großen Strohhut? Doch in "Huckleberry Finns Abenteuern" steckt viel mehr als ein harmloses Kinderbuch, das kleine Jungs mit der Welt der Abenteuer in Berührung bringt. Mark Twains zweites Buch (nach "Tom Sawyers Abenteuern") über den jugendlichen, von der heuchlerischen Gesellschaft abgestoßenen Huckleberry Finn ist nicht nur abenteuerlich, sondern stellenweise auch sehr zivilisationskritisch und geradezu düster. Es geht um Sklaverei, den Wert eines Menschen, um Lüge und Betrug, um moralisches Handeln und um echte Freundschaft. Es ist nicht nur die Südstaaten-Romantik, die Mark Twain ironisiert, sondern auch seine mit spitzer Feder gezeichneten Porträts der Menschen in Illinois und Arkansas, die den Roman zu einem authentischen Ausschnitt einer eher düsteren Epoche der Vereinigten Staaten machen. Aus der Perspektive des jugendlichen Helden bekommt die Welt etwas Magisches, und Twain gelingt es mit leichter Hand, Selbstverständlichkeiten durch die naiv-beobachtende Weltsicht von Huck Finn zu demontieren. Am Schluss der Reise auf dem Mississippi steht der amerikanischste aller amerikanischen Begriffe mit einem großen Ausrufezeichen: Freiheit! This book is sequal of 'Adventure of Tom Sawyer'. Huckleberry finn is freind of Tom Sawyer. Huckleberry finn was get a lot of money. But he wasn't happy life... When I read this story,I was very exciting. I thought his life was so fantastic!! What I think of this book? I wish I would have read it years ago! This story of a boy growing up, going on adventures, and friends just plain made me smile! :)
Mark Twain may be called the Edison of our literature. There is no limit to his inventive genius, and the best proof of its range and originality is found in this book, in which the reader's interest is so strongly enlisted in the fortunes of two boys and a runaway negro that he follows their adventures with keen curiosity, although his common sense tells him that the incidents are as absurd and fantastic in many ways as the "Arabian Nights."
