The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn Infinitys Illustrated Classics

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain (first published in the UK, 1884; US edition 1885, Chatto & Windus / Charles L. Webster & Co.) is a picaresque novel often hailed as one of the Great American Novels. A sequel to The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, it follows Huck Finn as he escapes his abusive father and journeys down the Mississippi River with Jim, an enslaved man seeking freedom. Written entirely in vernacular English, the novel blends adventure with biting social satire, confronting themes of race, morality, and freedom in the antebellum South.
