Paper Summary:

This is a creative writing paper that is narrated from the perspective of the fictional character Huck Finn, of Mark Twain's classic American novel, "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn".

From the Paper:

"I always said that having to be civilized was all a man done needed to be driven plumb crazy, and I guess that's true of women too. I remember way back when, when I was being trapped in a room with all of these drawings of a girl who had died, this girl who spent so much time thinkin' of heaven when she was alive it seemed she done thought herself dead. I thought religion and civilization had made her dead crazy. And she died even before she could make her final creepy drawing so there that picture was, staring at me, with this ghoulish girl reaching up to the sky, with all of these arms 'cause the girl couldn't decide what pair of arms looked better."
