Meer over het boek

Exploring themes of identity and belonging, My Southern Home reflects William Wells Brown's quest for a place of acceptance amidst the realities of slavery and racism. As a prominent abolitionist and the first African American novelist, Brown's narrative is deeply rooted in his personal experiences, having been born into slavery in Kentucky and escaping to Ohio. This work serves as a poignant culmination of his literary contributions and a testament to his enduring fight for freedom and equality.
