Not only was Mark Twain a genius novelist, he had an equal genius wit for sarcasm. His essays and speeches are wonderful reads; not at all like the stereotypical monotone writings of others. Twain also wrote scathing sarcastic reviews of his fellow authors, which did not always make him a popular author among his contemporaries. In Twain's time stories / novels typically came out in popular magazines, a few chapters at a time, rather than, like today in 1 entire book at a time. People would anxiously await, Train's latest chapters of adventures of Huck, Becky, and Tom. Twain also wrote numerous short stories, worth reading. Train's wit is incomparable, to this day.

Twain was a great writer and people should be able to read his books. Times were different when he wrote the books. Folks are to realize this. Later in life while talking about his books at a university,he talked with an African American student who told him that he would not be able to finish college.unknown to him Twain paid tuition an room an broad for him until he graduated

I’m from the UK and just started reading The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, but for some reason I always thought it was just for kids so never bothered to read it, but there’s some heavy stuff in it both socially and in the home, also touching on racist and moral issues. It took a while for me to get into it but it’s definitely starting to grow on me. I had heard of the book and had in mind some romantic idea of riding down the Mississippi on a boat, but never knew how significant it was culturally, especially in America where I since learned was taught in schools but now banned due to bad words in it and it was also banned on first publication in Massachusetts as “trash and suitable only for slums” as well as banned in many libraries. The book was first published in the UK where it was also not looked upon favourably by some Victorian’s for the violence and bad language etc. This literary classic divided opinion though and people were in favour of it and some believed it was necessary to demolish the dwindling romantic writing that was falling out of fashion, leading to bigger possibilities of what could be written.

Player falling knife. Huckleberry Finn is a much more difficult book to read and understand than Tom Sawyer. Tom Sawyer is a good book but Huckleberry Finn is a masterpiece.
