Huckleberry Finn
Huckleberry Finn
In the novel Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain, Huck goes through
many adventures on the Mississippi River. He escapes from Pap and
sails down the Mississippi with an escaped slave named Jim. Huck goes
through the moral conflict of how wrong it is to be helping Jim escape
to freedom. Eventually Huck decides he will help Jim and actually
steals him from a farmer with the help of Tom Sawyer, a friend.
Eventhough Huck and Jim are trying to sail to the Ohio River which
leads to freedom, they pass it in the dark.
Over the course of the novel Hucks opinion of Jim changes. In the
beginning of their voyage, Huck feels he shouldnt be helping Jim to
freedom and almost turns him in to slave catchers Twain 87 “I was
paddling off, all in a sweat to tell on him; but when he says this
(that Huck is his one and only friend) it seemed to take the tuck all
out of me.”. Huck begins to enjoy having
