This is one of those classics that was so hyped up that, when I finally read it, I was pretty underwhelmed. Not to say that it's not an impactful story, but it's just far more tame and reflective than I thought it would be. I think, if I hadn't already read Roots by Alex Haley, I would be greatly impressed by this book. As it stands, I was too aware of the fact that it was a white woman telling an African American slave's tale to a predominantly white audience.

An absolute must-read for anybody interested in the history of slavery in the United States. Although fiction, this is one of the most powerful, damning pieces of literature I’ve read on the topic and is absolutely heartbreaking in several places throughout the story.
