Résumé :
|
Of all the contenders for the tittle of The Great American Novel, none has a better claim than "The Adventures of "Huckleberry Finn"". This idyll, intented at first as 'a kind of companion to Tom Sawyer', grew and matured under Mark Twain's hand into a work of immeasurable richness and complexity. Critics have argued over the symbolic significance of Huck's and Jim's voyage down the Mississippi. It's an incomparable adventure story, as a classic of American humour, and as a metaphor of the American Predicament.
