I was cleaning out my closet recently when I found a book you might know:

'The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn'

 

I first read it in HS English class many moons ago. I remember my teacher mentioning what Ernest Hemingway had to say about it:

'All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain, Huckleberry Finn'

 

Did Ernest Hemingway, himself, come from Huckleberry Finn?

To find out, I thought, gee, I'll add Tom Sawyer to Huck Finn and see what happens. Check this out!

 

GEE, HUCK FINN TOM SAWYER = O FUCK! ERNEST HEMINGWAY!!

Interesting that you should

Interesting that you should mention these classics, both of which were a pleasure to read in my childhood, but are now on a list of books that are banned in some parts of the US and have been removed from the Internet Archive as a result.

 

But don't get me started on how fascists are coming for our books. I just wanted to say that I enjoyed your lighthearted word game. Hemingway is smiling.
