I was very impressed at Huck's amazing ability to calmly and logically stage his own murder under such emotional circumstances. Huck mainly fakes his own murder to be free of his father. He escapes the locked cabin and gets to work. He breaks down the cabin door, slaughters a pig (so that there is blood everywhere) and takes almost everything from the cabin. He drags a bag of seed to create drag marks in the opposite direct and then leaves as soon as he is finished. It's astonishing to think of such a young child being able to successfully fool an entire town into thinking there was an actual crime.
I agree with you on that. I personally grew up with a much more critical and logical mindset in my younger years and I wouldn't of wanted it any other way. I believe that is one reason why Huck was able to preform such an amazing feat and convince everyone around him that it was actually true.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, its amazing how Huck, a little boy, could plan a fake murder like that. When I was little I barely even knew what murder was so round of applause for Huck.
