Review of 'The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
I wanted to re-read (listen) to this book as an adult because I read it as a teen and had no recollection whatsoever of the n-bomb. I really dislike that word, and wanted to see if all the recent fuss had any basis. Conclusion: leave it alone, people. To remove that word from this book would change the entire foundation of the story. To remove it would be MISSING THE POINT.
