Detailed and nuanced story of the effects of living with oppression. A slow and somber read with no relief, but it does draw you into a world that is nearly impossible to imagine.

This novel opens with immediacy and unforgettable descriptions. It quickly loses momentum, however.

Interesting book about slavery. Very well written but not a barn burner. One man's attempt to get away and horrible slave owners.
