Synopsis
Winner of the Listen Up AwardBest Classic Fiction of 1996 and Grammy Award Nominee for the Best Spoken Word of 1996.
Shelley Fisher Fishkin
This is the definitive critical edition of Huckleberry Finn you've been waiting for. Ingenious textual detective work rescues Twain at last from hundreds of careless errors by typists, typesetters and proofreaders. The fascinating explanatory notes help us decode allusions that were familiar to readers in Twain's time but are obscure today, while the reproduced manuscript pages let us compare for the first time first and final drafts of some of the book's most memorable passages. This splendid book belongs in every library, home, and literature classroom.
