Workhouse Editions’ Huckleberry Jim publishes on October 6 alongside a Blackstone audiobook narrated by Leon Nixon, according to the official title site. Adam Nelson’s debut novel also appears in hardcover, paperback and ebook editions. Set in 1991, the story follows two actors taking a stripped-down production of
Huckleberry Finn into schools in upstate New York and Appalachia. Their shared work brings arguments about race, performance and censorship into the relationship between the younger Axel Emerson and veteran actor Moses Morton. The official launch event follows on October 10 at the Mark Twain Boyhood Home and Museum in
Hannibal, Missouri. The audiobook announcement identifies an introduction recorded by Nelson and Grover Gardner as senior audio producer. Read the official source. Image: Marcel Mutt / Workhouse Editions; official Huckleberry Jim jacket.
