Sinopsis
Charles R. Johnson is an American scholar and author of novels, short stories, and essays. His 1990 winner of the national Book Awards, Middle Passage , is a historical novel set in 1830. It is focused on the final voyage of an illegal American slave ship, the Republic. Rutherford Calhoun, a newly freed slave, is desperate to escape his debt to a local gangster and his impending forced marriage to a prim schoolteacher. He sneaks onto a ship that is headed out to sea to capture members of a legendary African tribe, the Allmuseri. As the novel unfolds, Calhoun is trapped between three parties and thus begins a shocking voyage of horror, self-discovery and insurrection. A superbly written modern classic.
