The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (AmazonClassics Edition)

By: Mark Twain

Narrated by: Dick Hill

Refusing to be civilized by Southern society or cowed by his drunken father's lashings, young Huckleberry Finn decides he has only one option left: fake his own death and hop a raft down the Mississippi River. Instead of carrying him far from trouble, though, Huck's raft delivers him to a place of moral uncertainty.

Mark Twain unwinds Huck's harrowing journey to manhood with satirical wit, revealing the troubled history of the American South, where slavery held sway long after the Civil War ended. Huck's relationship with runaway slave Jim forces him to confront his beliefs about friendship and freedom.

I used this to compliment my reading of the same work...

We participate in a ‘Great Books’ reading group, and our upcoming work is to be “Huckleberry Finn”.

This audible book is very well read, and it complimented my reading in preparation for our upcoming meeting - much better than the watching 3 of the 5 movies made with this same title.

In my estimation, anyone would enjoy listening to this work.

The best!!

Sooooo much different to listen than to read! I love this so much! The reading is the best. I can visualize almost better listening to Huck describe the river! Listen to this!! You will enjoy!

Note: it is an accurate reading so the language could be offensive but I just listened knowing that history might be offensive but we can learn from it!

Really good overall read

I am a 14 year old boy and I really like this book. While the language was harsh it taught me why it’s so bad. Full of adventure, mischief, and valuable lessons. A must read for ages 12-14.

Really enjoyed the narrator.

The narrator was excellent. My son and I enjoyed the story line. The language opened the door to teach him valuable lessons.

Good but not as good as Tom Sawyer

I might have liked this book more if I had read and listened to this before Tom Sawyer. But I liked Tom Sawyer more than this book.

The narrator was excellent.
