Présentation
Everyone knows Huckleberry Finn's adventures down the Mississippi. Nobody had heard them from Jim — the enslaved man who runs alongside him. Percival Everett gives Jim his true name, James, his secret literacy and his razor-sharp inner voice, turning Twain's classic inside out: the river odyssey becomes a thriller of survival, performance and self-invention, by turns terrifying and bitingly funny. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction 2025, the National Book Award 2024 and the Kirkus Prize, James has become an instant modern classic — the rare literary phenomenon that is also impossible to put down.
