Explain Hucks thinking and his moral direction on what he sees right. Does is believe the society is more right than his is or does. Does he rely more on his own moral senses or the ones predetermined for him?

Hucks vision for himself is cloudy, but decipherable, that he is attracted to society …show more content…
