James reimagines Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn from the perspective of Jim, the enslaved man who flees with Huck. The novel reveals Jim's inner thoughts, intelligence, and literacy, contrasting with the way he often presents himself to white people. It follows their journey down the Mississippi River through Jim's eyes, highlighting the constant threat of slavery and racism. Unlike Twain's narrative, Everett continues Jim's story even when he and Huck are separated, focusing on Jim's fight for freedom and his deep longing to reunite with his family. It's a powerful and often satirical look at slavery, offering a crucial alternative perspective on a classic American story.
