Launched into existence by Mark Twain in 1835, Huck Finn and Jim
have now been transported by Norman Lock through three vital,
violent, and transformative centuries of American history. As time
unfurls on the river s banks, they witness decisive battles of the
Civil War, the betrayal of Reconstruction s promises to the freed
slaves, the crushing of the Native American nations, and the
electrification of a continent. Huck, who finally comes of age when
he s washed up on shore during Hurricane Katrina, narrates the
story as an older and wiser man in 2077, revealing our nation s
past, present, and future as Mark Twain could never have dreamed
it.
"The Boy in His Winter" is a tour de force work of imagination,
beauty, and courage that reenvisions a great American literary
classic for our time."
