Mark Twain’s literary classic The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn has been given a trigger warning by Exeter University academics.
The novel, first published in 1884, follows on from Twain’s previous work The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. Set in the pre-abolition US south, the story follows a river journey involving Huckleberry “Huck” Finn and Jim, a Black man escaping a life of slavery.
