Huck Finn

My son is reading Huck Finn as summer reading for school. As he's been reading I've come across references to it. Will Boast says, in his book Epilogue, that he's read it four times. And I read in the New Yorker that Charles Ray made a sculpture of Huck and Jim--somewhat controversial and therefore appropriate. I read the book in high school too and I had it on my little shelf of classics.
