U / Mark Twain / Huckleberry

'Adventures of Huckleberry Finn' by Mark Twain is a novel first published in 1884 in the United Kingdom and 1885 in the United States. This work is among the first in major American literature to be written in vernacular English, characterized by local color regionalism. The book is noted for its colorful description of people and places along the Mississippi River. Set in a Southern antebellum society that had ceased to exist about 20 years before the work was published, 'Adventures of Huckleberry Finn' is often regarded as a scathing satire on entrenched attitudes, particularly racism.
