Chapters 32-36

So far these last chapters are definitely my favorite of the Adventures of Huckleberry Fin. It is very creative and humorous in how Mark twain writes in this satirical manner when Huck is with Tom Sawyer. As we witness Tom trying to get Jim out of the low security cabin, he is determined to make his life as miserable as possible because he is focused on getting Jim free only as romantic novels describe prison escape as;even when it would take very little effort and brain power to get him out as seen by Huck"s simple ideas. In these chapters it is clear that Mark Twain is poking fun at the novels of that time but more importantly he is showing the maturity of Huck. All this while Huck had always come to Tom for the answers or asked the question; What would Tom do? but it is clear that Huck might actually know how to find the answers to his own questions much more easily, and in reality they may be more practical than Tom's adventurous and immature ways.
