A Book Really??

For many year there has been a great controversy regarding the reading this book in schools. This book is a great example for English classes when studying the literary devices, this book is Huckleberry Finn. It is about a n uneducated white boy who runs away with a slave. There a lot of controversy because it is offensive to African Americans, I think in order for a book to be such a classic it needs to be real, and that what the author did, with each word and sentence he brought us deeper into the world of Huckleberry Finn.


You don't know about me without you have read a book by the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer; but that ain't no matter. 
-Mark Twain 




































This book was made by Mr. Mark Twain, and he told the truth, mainly. There was things which he stretched, but mainly he told the truth Mark Twain used dialect and, figurative language in order to make the audience a part of this world. Mark Twain was the first to do the impossible was able to unlock the door to how life use to be; what people really though. I think that the controversy is not all about the language in the book, I think it is about how the characters are portrayed. It is simple the characters are real, a boy that has a drunk for a father(real). And a person to yet know who he really is(real). Can anybody Identify the the device used in this quote.
