Huckleberry Finn, analysis

Mark Twain and Huckleberry Finn.

The book starts out with: “People that try to find a plot in it, will be shot”. Has been a controversial book, because of language, such as the use of the word nigger. And the attitude to blacks is not appropriate. But Jim is a very admirable character in Huck Finn. We have a narrator in this book that is different from the books before. He is the most reliable narrator, although he is a notorious liar. Believe me, I tell lies. Difficulty that Huck has with the truth, unlike The house of usher, you can trust him. He is uneducated, is a child, in most ways that we would assess prestige, control, Huck has none of those things. Why make Huck the narrator? Saywer is fun, Huck finn makes people frustrated and angry.
