A review by mayajoelle
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain
4.0
A really skillful look at conscience and the individual. I appreciated the Hamlet/Claudius/Moses references and look forward to reading it again someday.
The ending is really frustrating, but after all, Twain does warn readers who attempt to find a moral that they will be shot. And just as I found my moral (all right then, I'll go to hell), along came the gunshot of that interminable farcical ending. It is not thematically satisfying, and that is probably the point.
