"The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (Tom Sawyer's Comrade)" by Mark Twain is a novel written in the late 19th century. It follows the journey of Huckleberry Finn, a young boy who escapes from an oppressive home life and embarks on a series of adventures along the Mississippi River. The narrative explores themes of freedom, morality, and the societal norms of the time, as Huck encounters various characters and situations that challenge his understanding of right and wrong. At the start of the story, Huck Finn introduces himself, referencing his previous adventures in "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer." He describes his uncomfortable life with the Widow Douglas, who is trying to civilize him, and his discomfort with the constraints of society. Huck then reveals that he has run away from home and had an encounter with his father, Pap, a violent and abusive man. The opening chapters establish Huck's desire for freedom and his struggle with social expectations, setting the stage for his subsequent adventures as he meets Jim, a runaway slave, and begins to form a deep bond with him while navigating the complexities of life on the river.
