New edition of Huckleberry Finn replaces n-word with ‘slave’

The censorship of art

The question of whether Mark Twain's classic Huckleberry Finn should be censored first came up a year after it was published, and the pressure on the often politically incorrect (then and now) book hasn't stopped in the 125 years since, earning it fourth place on a list of the US's most banned books.

Alan Gribben is editing a new version of the classic novel that will remove all 219 instances of the "n-word," replacing it with the word "slave." The book will also replace the word "Injun."

Literary purists and opponents of censorship are crying foul, accusing Gribben of Bowdlerizing a literary classic.
