Overview

«Un libro tan importante como el Diario de Ana Frank, pero publicado casi cien años antes.»
Steve McQueen

«Solo puedo hablar de la esclavitud en la medida en que la he observado yo mismo, en que la he conocido y experimentado en mi propia persona.»

El mejor testimonio sobre la época más sombría de la historia estadounidense son las desgarradoras memorias de Solomon Northup, un afroamericano nacido como hombre libre en Nueva York. Las escribió después de haber pasado doce años esclavizado en varias plantaciones de Luisiana. Corría el año 1841 cuando fue engañado, secuestrado y vendido. Desapareció sin dejar rastro.

Su relato es sobrecogedor y su punto de vista, inusual, pues Northup conoció de primera mano qué significaba ser un hombre libre y ser víctima de la esclavitud. Su valioso libro ha perdurado por ser una crónica sobre el mal y el lado oscuro del ser humano, pero nos lega asimismo un bello tratado acerca de la amistad y de la superación.

Reseña:
«Esta historia es más poderosa que cualquier obra de ficción.»
Cincinnati Journal (1853)ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONThe harrowing true story that inspired the critically acclaimed film.The son of a freed slave, Solomon Northup lived the first thirty years of his life as a free man in upstate New York. In the spring of 1841, he was offered a job: a short-term, lucrative engagement as a violinist in a traveling circus. It was a trap. In Washington, DC, Northup was drugged, kidnapped, and sold into slavery. He spent the next twelve years on plantations in Louisiana, enduring backbreaking labor, unimaginable violence, and inhumane treatment at the hands of cruel masters, until a kind stranger helped to win his release. His account of those years is a shocking, unforgettable portrait of America's most insidious historical institution as told by a man who experienced it firsthand.

Published shortly after Harriet Beecher Stowe's abolitionist classic Uncle Tom's Cabin, Northup's memoir became a bestseller in 1853. With its eloquent depiction of life before and after bondage, Twelve Years a Slave was a unique and effective entry into the national debate over slavery.
