Great concept, lacking story

2 stars

Something about knowing this was tied to Huckleberry Finn made this much less interesting.It's well written, but the plotline was desigend for Huck, not Jim. Trying to squeeze something out of that side of the story leaves it lacking. Again, good writing, and Jame's internal monologue and perception of the world is very powerful. But the lasting impact was very low given high expectations going in.
