The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (pt 1)
About this episode
This episode explores the complexities and controversies surrounding Mark Twain's 'The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn' and its protagonist Huck.
What happens when you take a story that is controversial enough to be frequently banned from libraries and mix it with an author who doesn’t care what you think about his writing? You get Mark Twain’s “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn”. But why is a story about a boy floating down a river so scrutinized? Some reasons are obvious, but others are less so. All I know is I found the character of Huck to be a great study in choosing what matters to you. So come on in, the water is fine...for now.
