Nunca me llegué a leer las Aventuras de Huckelberry Finn, así que supongo que me pierdo parte de la gracia de este libro…pero me ha gustado mucho, ya que está muy bien narrado, y la historia aunque empieza floja o despacio, va tomando velocidad e interés.

I can see why this book gained so much attention, showing the story of Huck Finn from Jim’s perspective. It was powerful to see how different the story would be from the point of view of the enslaved, and Everett does well with giving Jim agency and showing his cunning to be able to survive the whims and wrath of enslavers.
