In Huckleberry Finn the role of society plays a huge part on everyone‚ but especially Huck and Jim. As Huck grew up in the deep south‚ slavery wasn’t just an event that was going on in the background of life‚ it was the way of life. “Humans can be awful cruel to one another” (pg. 1328) This quote perfectly describes the lifestyle of the deep south and is one of the moments when Huck realizes that things are not morally right in society.

Satire: The Exposure of Southern Life Mark Twain wrote the renowned nineteenth century novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn as a humorist‚ with intentions solely entertain the reader.
