Huck Finn Man Often Concealed Shortcomings
962 wordsThroughout the Mark Twain (a. k. a. Samuel Clemens) novel, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, the author expresses a plain and striking point of view. His point of view is that of a cynic; he looks upon civilized man as a merciless, cowardly, hypocritical savage, without desire for change, nor the ability to effect such change.
