In debt, Kentucky farmer Arthur Shelby reluctantly decides to trade two of his slaves. The two, middle-aged Uncle Tom and young Harry, are to be sold to Mr. Haley, a detestable slave trader. Eliza, Harry's mother and Mrs. Shelby's maid, overhears the details of the arraignment, warns Uncle Tom, and flees with Harry to the north. Eliza and Harry barely make it across the Ohio River before slave catchers can catch up with them. On the run, Eliza and her family seek shelter and safety. Meanwhile, Uncle Tom, who refused to run away, is separated from his family and sold down river. As novel progresses, the juxtaposed narratives highlight the harsh reality of slavery.

Impossible to listen to without succombing to tears not only at the injustice, greed and horror wrought by some slave owners of the time but also for the beauty of relationship and compassion evident in the characters of Tom, Eva, Mrs Shelby and the Quakers.

A heart-rending tale of the injustice of slavery

This was my third audio book and is one of the most powerful and dramatic pieces of writing I have ever heard/ read. The story is extremely compelling and well written. The performance was excellent, with a creative range of accents, which were easy to follow. Thoroughly enjoyed the book.

Powerful story and writing

A passionate critique of slavery driven by religious conviction and a careful and compassionate understanding of slavery, told as a powerful human drama.

A story for our times

This is a story that is hard to hear but it is so important that as long as the reader is constantly aware that the extreme racism of its language, story, characterisation and even, to some extent, its style, are all ‘of the time’ in which it was written, I.e. mid 19th century America. Also reflective of the world in which this story was created, is the omnipresent idea of a God and the externalisation of good and evil. Harriet Beecher Stow tells the story via the parallel journeys of several characters, either slaves or slave owners. At times I found it challenging to remember all of the different characters and their situations and the author’s voice and summation of their characters distanced me and even jarred. Again this is a reflection of the historical nature of the text, which I do recommend.

Powerful, tragic story of its time
