Harriet Beecher Stowe was appalled by slavery, and she took one of the few options open to nineteenth century women who wanted to affect public opinion: she wrote a novel, a huge, enthralling narrative that claimed the heart, soul, and politics of millions of her contemporaries. Uncle Tom's Cabin paints pictures of three plantations, each worse than the other, where even the best plantation leaves a slave at the mercy of fate or debt. Her questions remain penetrating even today: "Can man ever be trusted with wholly irresponsible power?"
First published more than 150 years ago, this monumental work is today being reexamined by critics, scholars, and students. Though "Uncle Tom" has become a synonym for a fawning black yes-man, Stowe's Tom is actually American literature's first black hero, a man who suffers for refusing to obey his oppressors. Uncle Tom's Cabin is a living, relevant story, passionate in its vivid depiction of the cruelest forms of injustice and inhumanity-and the courage it takes to fight against them.

评分曾经的奴隶制度让我感觉到后怕,这似乎是人类野蛮的行为,如何会出现在一个高度文明的国家。这不禁让我想起了可耻的日侵华事件,民族可以原谅却永远不能释怀,伤疤总会结痂,但想起总会隐隐作痛。 一个人的灵魂和肉体经过无数次的贱卖,使多少妻离子散,多少...
评分久闻《汤姆叔叔的小屋》一本书点燃一场战争的盛名,却因为这种过于彰显的政治因素,一直对它退避三舍。 年少时看到《复活》里玛丝洛娃对聂赫留朵夫弥补罪过的拒绝,《茶花女》里玛格丽特为了保全阿尔芒前途的远去消逝,《雾都孤儿》里南希为奥利弗求情而终丧性命,《骆驼祥子...
