‘Right is right and wrong is wrong, and a body ain’t got no business doing wrong when he ain’t ignorant and knows better.’

Along the Mississippi River, in the pre-civil war days, lived a mischievous and independent little boy Huckleberry Finn. The American Society in that era was brimming with policies that were discriminating and little boys like him who were oppressed.

Huck seeking freedom runs away from his abusive father and fakes his own death to escape the constraints of civilization. On his journey, he befriends Jim an escaped slave who is also on the run, seeking freedom from the shackles of slavery.

Huck and Jim form a strong friendship, stemming from their boyish innocence and the glimmering dreams they hold in their eyes. Their adventures take the reader back to the bittersweet years of growing up.

Will these little boys grow up to build the lives they dream?

Mark Twain

Mark Twain was an American writer, humourist, entrepreneur, publisher and lecturer; his real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens. He grew up in Hannibal, Missouri, a town on the Mississippi River that would later inspire many of his works. Twain had a difficult childhood, marked by poverty and the death of his father when he was just eleven years old. Despite these challenges, he was an excellent student and showed a talent for writing at an early age. These experiences influenced his writings which often dealt with recurring themes of loss and mortality. He went on to publish more works, including The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876), Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885) and A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court (1889) which are now considered classics of American literature. Twain was known for his humour and satire as well as his commentary on American society and politics.
