    Essay Help

    For my grade 12 english class I was assigned to write an essay on the heart of a novel, which I chose Huckleberry Finn. I chose to write about racism and slavery.

    Now as a follow up essay I have to read any novel that has a thread to Huckleberry Finn and then have to write a comparitive essay.

    Im having trouble finding a suitible novel to read. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Morgan

    This depends on what "thread" you wish to follow. If you wish to follow the racism thread and/or the river journey thread, then check out Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad. If you wish to follow the racism thread in an American author, Richard Wright's Black Boy explores racism from the black perspective. Stephen Crane's Red Badge of Courage also tells the story of a young boy coming to self-knowledge - which Huck does in his novel as well.

    Good luck

    this shouldn't be too hard for u, there are plenty of books that explore racism and slavery. just go to the library and ask someone who works there, u need to go through a few to see which one would be best for u to read, u dont want to get a book that someone told u too and b bored out of ur mind with it, that won't help ur essay at all
