Description: |
This edition of Clotel is the only one to include selections from the key texts and cultural documents that Brown drew upon when he wrote his novel. The streamlined second edition includes an updated introduction and features cultural documents which focus more directly on the texts about slavery and race that Brown used. |
Synopsis: |
This novel explores slavery's destructive effects on African-American families, the difficult lives of American mulattoes or mixed-race people, and the "degraded and immoral condition of the relation of master and slave in the United States of America." It is a tragic mulatto story about a woman named Currer and her daughters Althesa and Clotel, fathered by Thomas Jefferson. |
