Huckleberry Finn in Bloomington, MN

Revered by all of the town's children and dreaded by all of its mothers, Huckleberry Finn is indisputably the most appealing child-hero in American literature.
Unlike the tall-tale, idyllic world of
Tom Sawyer
,

is firmly grounded in early reality. From the abusive drunkard who serves as Huckleberry's father, to Huck's first tentative grappling with issues of personal liberty and the unknown,
Huckleberry Finn
endeavors to delve quite a bit deeper into the complexities-both joyful and tragic of life.
