One of America's most beloved and banned books, Mark Twain's novel was attacked when it was published in 1885 for its "low morals." Later, it became part of the American literary canon, only to become controversial again on the grounds of racism - a charge that is still debated in schools today. Is Huck a brilliant satire against racism, or does it reinforce stereotypes?
