Description

Jim Huckleberry tells the story of an enslaved man who escapes to freedom through harrowing adventures along the Mississippi river with a young white runaway named Huck Finn. Branching from Mark Twain's original work, some of the action reimagines what occurs in Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, but most of what happens reflect the thoughts and experiences of the central character, Jim. From Jim's brief impulse to kill Huck to protect himself against betrayal, to thoughts of rescuing his family to the young black nation of Haiti, to his final act of taking the name Huckleberry as a root of his new legacy, Jim Huckleberry gives Jim depth from the margins of Twain's work. Jim longs for his wife, pines for his children, contemplates the nature of God, and considers the specter of whiteness. Huck is Jim's help out of slavery, but becomes his comrade on the journey from captive to free man, from being branded "slave" to choosing a surname and hope for a legacy. The story is filtered through Jim's lyrical, poetic voice, which serves as a foil to the exaggerated dialect that, arguably, stains Twain's original story. Jim Huckleberry is a literary work of rhymed, rhythmic prose anchored in the American literary canon as it reaches for an alternate history of present day black/white race dynamics.
