Book Review
Mark Twain's «Adventures of Huckleberry Finn» is often hailed as the greatest American novel. Critics praise the author's skill in creating vivid and memorable characters like Huck and Jim. Twain masterfully uses dialects and colloquial speech, lending authenticity and depth to the narrative. The themes of freedom, friendship, and moral growth explored through the protagonists' adventures make the book relevant even today. Some critics also highlight Twain's boldness in depicting the social issues of his time, such as slavery and racism. However, despite its acclaim, the book has faced criticism for its use of racial stereotypes and language that may be considered offensive in a modern context.
