A review by ttnnllrr
I, Tituba, Black Witch of Salem by Maryse Condé

dark emotional sad slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

As I was reading the book, I found it to be an undeniably heavy and justified scrutiny of Puritan America, slavery, and the patriarchy, and it forced me to really analyze what I knew about the story of Tituba and the Crucible. However, when reading the afterward and the interview with the author at the end of the book, I gathered that this book was mostly written to be satirical and overdramatized to poke fun at what people believe these experiences to truly be like. 
The book was phenomenal, I think it would be beneficial to reread, knowing what the objective of this book was, just so I can try wrap my head around it. 
Really well done!
