A review by ellaroshea
Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass by Frederick Douglass

5.0

so compelling. this blurs the lines between fiction and non-fiction very interestingly and as a piece in a social/historical movement it's so interesting. for all we talk about slavery we really don't realise how horrific it is sometimes and this narrative just really hammers that home. I also loved the bit where he talked about christianity of america vs. christianity of christ and that's honestly still so prevalent today. these same issues and fights have just been going on for centuries, which is both disheartening and encouraging.
