The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a novel by Mark Twain and originally published between 1884 and 1885. The novel focuses on the friendship between Huck and Jim, and how each of them tries to overcome their problems.

The story takes place along the Mississippi River, which Huck and a runaway slave named Jim travel on a raft. Throughout the novel, the two characters are confronted with various problems, such as slavery, religion and society.

The plot of the novel follows The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, being a sort of continuation of it. Huckleberry Finn, Tom Sawyer's best friend, receives the care and protection of Douglas's widow, but at the same time he devotes himself to his usual games helping Tom in his band of thieves. However, fate plays against poor Huck, for he is captured by his wicked father, who returns to town and takes him to live in a shack downriver.

There, Huck is held captive, but manages to escape on a raft and meets his friend Jim, a runaway slave who is fleeing for his freedom. The two embark on a dangerous escape along the Mississippi River, and live many adventures together, until they reach the surprising and unexpected end of the work, in which they receive the help of the risky and brave Tom Sawyer.
