Mark Twain describes Huck as a character of light and positivity. A character who shines as the protagonist of the novel. Huckleberry Finn in the novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a protagonist who modifies over the course of the book. Huck starts off as reckless and unaware of the problems his actions cause.
