I can't get carried away with the general love there is for this.
James (Jim from Huck Finn).
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn has its place in American literature because of its use of the vernacular.
Everett almost mocks this by portraying Jim as a highly educated, erudite slave who hides it. His almighty twist is that Huck is half black, and the son of James ... such a WTF!
