Si pudiera dar más estrellas a esta novela se las daría. Comencé a leerla sin muchas expectativas y ha pasado directamente a mi lista de novelas favoritas. Más allá de las evidentes diferencias culturales y sociales entre nuestra época y la de Mark Twain, los personajes son maravillosos y el humor en algunas partes de la novela es sencillamente genial. Lo que me resulta especialmente llamativo en esta novela la capacidad de Twain de introcudir magistralmente escenas siniestras que dan una capa adicional de profundidad a la historia. ¡Por fin entiendo por qué es considerada un clásico!

Wanted to follow up James with the original Tom and Huck series. While I am glad to have read this as a part of literary history, I will not be continuing the series. I didn't care for the characters or subject matter.
