The Adventures of Huckberry Finn, by Mark Twain

“All modern American literature comes from a book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn.” [Ernest Hemingway]

This book can be interpreted as a simple story about a boy's adventures in the Mississippi Valley during the second half of the 19th century. But the diversity of human experience and the humorous and heartbreaking situations that Huck goes through make him a unique work.
In the midst of the most diverse episodes, loneliness makes Huck fear that he is not part of the world. But solitude is necessary to feel freedom or, at least, using H. Bloom's expression, «not to renounce the desire for a permanent image of freedom».
