Description
"Harriet Jacobs--writing under the pseudonym Linda Brent--relates the story of her girlhood and adolescence as a slave in North Carolina and her eventual escape: a bildungsroman set in the complex terrain of a sexist, white supremacist society. Resolutely addressing women readers rather than men, [this book] seeks to make the reader understand how the treat of sexual violence shapes the lives of enslaved Black women and children. Equally brave and searing, [this book] is a triumph of American literature, and the unflinching narrative that broke the silence of the psychosexual exploitation of Black women." --back cover
