The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano: Written by Himself by Robert J. Allison, Olaudah Equiano

challenging dark emotional hopeful informative reflective sad medium-paced

Read this for uni and loved it. Amazingly written and such an important first-hand account of the slave trade. Obviously very upsetting content. Second-half is more of a story of a journey towards faith and finding Christianity. Not only important to read for the historical context, also one of the most beautifully written books I've read this year.
