Reseña: Perhaps the best written of all the slave narratives Twelve Years a Slave is a harrowing memoir about one of the darkest periods in American history. Brought to new attention by the Academy Award-winning film adaptation it is recognized for its unusual insight and eloquence as one of the very few portraits of American slavery produced by someone as educated as Solomon Northup or by someone with the dual perspective of having been both a free man and a slave.
