5.0

This was a short book kindly gifted to me by Vintage. It is a well written and poignant autobiography about his time as a slave and the standard way of life and experience he and his fellow slaves were being treated under.

I found his perception of religion used by the slave holders wholly enlightening and also shows how this can still be seen today in modern American religion.

Modern slavery still exists but reading this book has been most humbling and is as relevant now as when it was written as lessons can still be learned.
