Review:

I had a hard copy of this book sitting around, so when it showed up in audio at the library, I put it on my list.  I have no idea why I bought it.  This book is just one incredibly sad scene after another.  Of course, I know what slavery was like (particularly for women) and I've stared hard into the face of it.  I did not, however, need a full length novel dramatizing the inner horror for me to get it.  I cannot imaging having to live through it.  I just cannot read it.  It is bad for my soul to know in gory detail how horrible humans can be to one another.
