Quote of the Day

All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn. American writing comes from that. There was nothing before. There has been nothing as good since.
----Ernest Hemingway

More off the wall nonsense by H. Great writer, average pontificator.

Huckleberry Finn is my favorite American novel. I reread it about every three years. Have to agree with Hemingway on this one.
