A
powerful, unflinching portrayal, Incidents in the
Life of a Slave Girl recounts the incredible but
true story of Harriet Jacobs, born a slave in North
Carolina in 1813. From the vantage point of her life
in New York City after she escapes from slavery in
1842, Harriet Jacobs offers a gripping account of
the experiences that fueled her determination to
remain hidden in The Loophole, a crawl space in her
grandmother’s attic, for seven years. |
