Earphones Award Winner (AudioFile Magazine)

Ernest Hemingway said, “All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn". One hundred years after its author’s death, this classic remains remarkably modern and poignantly relevant. In this new edition, Elijah Wood reads Huck in a youthful voice that may be the closest interpretation to Twain’s original intent. His performance captures the excitement and confusion of adolescence and adventure. Best of all, the immediacy of Wood’s energetic reading sweeps listeners up and makes them feel as though they’re along for the ride, as Huck and Jim push their raft toward freedom.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Elijah Wood’s performance is my nominee for the Narrators’ Hall of Fame. Wood’s unself-conscious reading doesn’t sound like a reading at all. He creates an entire world filled with people who cross class and color lines. His accents range from British to faux-British to all manner of regional affectations, twangs, and drawls. Wood’s delivery makes Mark Twain’s delicious wit and twisty language sound completely natural, especially as Huck invents plausible words to suit the moment. The journey down the Mississippi with Huck and Jim is pure pleasure, as the boy who won’t be "sivilized" and the runaway slave encounter scoundrels, slip out of scrapes, and invent outrageous tales. The listening couldn’t be better if Huck read the story himself." (AudioFile Magazine)

This is truly one of the masterpieces of American literature and the narrator, Elijah Wood, gives an excellent reading of the work. His voice changes to match characters and the story flows along so well. I hated when it ended.

One of the best listens I have had from Audible.

Excellent even if you have read or heard it before

Would you consider the audio edition of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn: A Signature Performance by Elijah Wood to be better than the print version?

A classic is always a classic, but a narrator can make or break an audible version. Elijah Wood is stupendous as Huck Finn. I enjoyed this book because he narrated it.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn: A Signature Performance by Elijah Wood?

I loved his dialects and my favorite part was when he was with the Duke of Bilgewater and the Dolphin. It was great the way he saw right past them but decided to play along anyway, at least until he noticed them hurting innocent people.

What about Elijah Wood’s performance did you like?

He seemed to ooze the part of Huckleberry and his dialects were great. When the real heirs came along from England and exposed the Duke and King, his English accent was wonderful and very noticeable against the con man's attempts at one.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

They have and I believe Elijah Wood is Huck in it but...The Great Adventure awaits!

Any additional comments?

Loved this book!

Classic story with a great Narrator!

Elijah Wood sets the bar - his performance opens a whole new level of expectation of audio books for me. Twain's masterful story telling and Elijah's talent combine for a memorable experience.

Do not pass this one by-and-by.

It was fun revisiting a classic I read 55 years ago. The story and writing stand the test of timing and adding although I found the frequent use of the 'n' word grating. Times change.

Great to revisit a classic

What made the experience of listening to Adventures of Huckleberry Finn: A Signature Performance by Elijah Wood the most enjoyable?

Elijah really stretched himself to accurately portray the Southern dialect that is so integral to Twain's Huckleberry character ...a brilliant rendition.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Obviously Huck...but having said that, all the characters were totally believable.

What about Elijah Wood’s performance did you like?

The concise articulation of the entire story whilst maintaining a brilliant understanding of period Southern dialect....he was Huckleberry Finn to a T

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Huckleberry's realisation that Jim (as a Negro) had the same fears and feelings as white folks...that subtle realisation that we're all the same under the skin

Elijah does Mark Proud

Had a great time revisiting this book of my childhood. The Audible edition, with narration by actor Elijah Wood, is excellent. This is an unabridged and uncensored version of Mark Twain's classic adventure novel. This version is a great window into 19th Century pre-Civil War America with its sense of adventure and imagination and racism. Yes, people talked that way then and had racist attitudes. (Which is probably why The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is one of America's most banned books.) That said, a mature adult ability to critically think and apply context will open up a world unknown to most Americans. Elijah Wood off to a slow start finds his voice and gives an outstanding performance. Can highly recommend this Audible version.

AN AMERICAN CLASSIC

Elijah Wood does an incredible job with all the accents. Best reading ever. Amazing story read by an amazing actor.

Excellent rendition

I was a bit doubtful with Elijah Wood being the narrator. I love him as an actor, but never imagined him as being a narrator. Especially for a book that takes place in the south.
I was pleasantly surprised! He did the book justice.

One of my favorite classics.
