Referring to
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, H. L. Mencken noted that his discovery of this classic American novel was ’the most stupendous event of my whole life’; Ernest Hemingway declared that ’all modern American literature stems from this one book, ’ while T. S. Eliot called Huck ’one of the permanent symbolic figures of fiction, not unworthy to take a place with Ulysses, Faust, Don Quixote, Don Juan, Hamlet.’
The novel’s preeminence derives from its wonderfully imaginative re-creation of boyhood adventures along the Mississippi River, its inspired characterization, the author’s remarkable ear for dialogue, and the book’s understated development of serious underlying themes: ’natural’ man versus ’civilized’ society, the evils of slavery, the innate value and dignity of human beings, and other topics. Most of all,
Huckleberry Finn is a wonderful story, filled with high adventure and unforgettable characters.
