A saintly black man endures the depredations of slavery and the torments of a cruel overseer published in 1852, harriet beecher stowe*s novel was a powerful indictment of slavery in america. Describing the many trials and eventual escape to freedom of the long-suffering, good-hearted slave uncle tom, it aimed to show how christian love can overcome any human cruelty. Uncle tom*s cabin has remained controversial to this day, seen as either a vital milestone in the anti-slavery cause or as a patronising stereotype of african-americans, yet it played a crucial role in the eventual abolition of slavery and remains one of the most important american novels ever written.
