A book review on Mark Twain's famous novel "The
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn". The paper explores how Huck Finn is the
innocent who serves to illuminate the hypocrisy and corruption of society through his pragmatic nature, his willingness to accept others until they show their true colors, and his innate sense of honor and fairness. The writer believes Huck does not learn the sort of thing found in books, and indicates that Twain uses this
novel as a way of making fun of a certain genre of books, the sort of high
adventures that fascinate Tom Sawyer and that are very different from the real world in which Tom and Huck live.
