Descriere The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn: (penguin Classics Deluxe Edition) - Mark Twain

These novels have played a unique and lasting role in the development of American literature. Now, Penguin Classics is proud to present three works in gorgeous graphic packages featuring cover art by some of the most talented illustrators working today. \nThe classic boyhood adventure tale in a beautiful Deluxe Edition illustrated by Lilli Carre \nMark Twain's tale of a boy's picaresque journey down the Mississippi on a raft conveyed the voice and experience of the American frontier as no other work had done before. When Huck escapes from his drunken father and the 'sivilizing' Widow Douglas with the runaway slave Jim, he embarks on a series of adventures that draw him to feuding families and the trickery of the unscrupulous 'Duke' and 'Dauphin'. Beneath the exploits, however, are more serious undercurrents - of slavery, adult control and, above all, of Huck's struggle between his instinctive goodness and the corrupt values of society, which threaten his deep and enduring friendship with Jim. \n \nFor more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.\n
