Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl

Harriet A. Jacobs

Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl allows Harriet Jacobs, speaking through her narrator, Linda Brent, to reveal her reasons for making public her personal story of enslavement, degradation, and sexual exploitation. Although originally ignored by critics, who often dismissed Jacobs' story as a fictionalized account of slavery, today it is heralded as the first book-length narrative by an ex-slave that reveals the unique brutalities inflicted on enslaved women.
