James by Percival Everett is the best book you’ll read this year. Maybe you’ve heard the title floating around, though maybe you haven’t. Maybe you took a pause when you noticed it was a re-telling of Huckleberry Finn. You thought, “I have not read Huck Finn in years.”
It doesn’t matter. Everett’s story is instead about Jim, or James, the enslaved man in Mark Twain’s 1885 classic. Of course, Huck and his antics remain in this novel, though with a new world around him. Thrilling, awake, and tender.
