James by Percival Everett REVIEW

Huckleberry Finn is quite a weird novel it changes in tone it changes in atmosphere a few times throughout its length and it's a book that can be at times incredibly silly almost annoyingly silly and at other times it can pack a real emotional punch especially in its descriptions of gratuitous violence of the horrible things that people do to each other often for the most manial of reasons

I must confess I did find that at times it moved a little bit too fast almost especially toward the end the resolution of James story felt maybe not rushed but definitely very Swift. but at the same time this leanness makes it a very fast very engaging read it's definitely gripping

I'm thinking here of a comparison with another brilliant novel about the horrors of slavery which is coone whitee heads the Underground Railroad
