James, Audiobook 🎧 by Percival Everett

When Jim, a man in bondage, discovers that he is on the brink of being sold to a man in New Orleans, permanently separated from his wife and daughter, he opts to take refuge on the nearby Jackson Island until he can construct a strategy. Simultaneously, Huck Finn has fabricated his own demise to elude his brutal father, who has recently reappeared in town. As all aficionados of American literature recognize, this initiates the hazardous and transcendent voyage by raft down the Mississippi River, in pursuit of the often elusive and unreliable promise of the Free States and beyond.

While numerous narrative components of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn remain intact (floods and storms, unexpectedly stumbling upon death and treasure at the myriad stopping points along the river’s banks, encountering the fraudsters impersonating the Duke and Dauphin…), Jim’s agency, intelligence, and compassion are illuminated in a radically fresh perspective.

Filled to the brim with the electrifying humor and incisive observations that have made Everett a “literary icon” (Oprah Daily), and one of the most decorated authors of our time, James is poised to be a major publishing phenomenon and a cornerstone of twenty-first-century American literature.
