The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

Description

Mark Twain is best known as the creator of one of the most popular books in American children’s literature, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Some have called it the first Great American Novel. This book has become required reading in many schools throughout the country because Huck ignores the rules and mores of the age to follow what he thinks is just (the story takes place in the 1850s where slavery is present). The book is noted for its colourful description of people and places along the Mississippi River, and its sober and often scathing look at entrenched attitudes, particularly racism. The drifting journey of Huck and his friend Jim, a runaway slave, down the Mississippi River on their raft may be one of the most enduring images of escape and freedom in all of American literature. At each stop, Huck engages his talent for mixing fact with bald-faced lies to endlessly get himself out of situations and of course, putting him into others! Lovingly recreated as an mp3 audio this CD contains the timeless story of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Follow Huck as he escapes his civilized life when he arranges his own “murder” and goes back downriver in the process springing a slave, Jim, from bondage. It’s the best book we’ve had,” pronounced Ernest Hemingway in 1932. “All American writing comes from that. There was nothing before. There has been nothing as good since.” MP3 Audio CD or MP3 Player or computer with sounds Required Ideal for children, teachers, students, the whole family and even the young at heart.
