DESCRIPTION:This month’s book is a brilliant reimagining of Adventu
 res of Huckleberry Finn—as told from Jim’s perspective. This
  psychologically astute retelling of Twain’s classic tale highlight
 s the fight for dignity and justice with subversive humor..\nhttps://pgcml

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>"When the enslaved Jim overhears that he i
 s about to be sold to a man in New Orleans\, separated from his wife and d
 aughter forever\, he decides to hide on nearby Jackson Island until he can
  formulate a plan. Meanwhile\, Huck Finn has faked his own death to escape
  his violent father\, recently returned to town. As all readers of America
 n literature know\, thus begins the dangerous and transcendent journey by 
 raft down the Mississippi River toward the elusive and too-often-unreliabl
 e promise of the Free States and beyond. While many narrative set pieces o
 f The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn remain in place (floods and storms\, 
 stumbling across both unexpected death and unexpected treasure in the myri
 ad stopping points along the river's banks\, encountering the scam artists
  posing as the Duke and Dauphin...)\, Jim's agency\, intelligence and comp
 assion are shown in a radically new light."</p>\n<p>&mdash\;From the catal
