很震撼
評分補錄/African American Literature/年代比較早瞭,所以有些敘述手法比較單一(總覺得女主有被害妄想癥,男主人有霸道總裁傾嚮)/當然,奴隸生活真的很悲慘啊。
評分The Southern hypocrisy blended in with the despair and hope burdened on the body of a slave girl. Motherhood, domestic ideology, and the blood shed under slavery.
評分其實我讀的是Penguin Classics版本的。以前一直覺得沒有受過良好教育的人不可能寫齣經典作品,但是這本書真的讓我覺得it never finishes what it intends to say. 從極度苦難中存活下來,作者對痛苦、人性和其他forms of oppression的理解深刻得令人戰栗。黑奴寫的東西不當史料讀,讀不齣它的偉大之處。
評分有曆史意義吧大概,行文有一種天然的誇飾,不免讓人懷疑故事有幾成假幾成真
