So little was known about the subject of black slave owners, and so little had been written about it, that Jones’s novel about Henry Townsend’s plantation and its slaves was taken as a feat of historiographic revelation.

I liked it much, much better than Compass Rose. This one surprised me a lot because I didn’t expect to get past the protagonist being a teenager (she’s probably 17?). A film option’s bound to happen at some point, starring a petite white actress who’s indistinguishable from the other white actresses. I can see why this got a huge book deal in that it’s exactly the kind of book people who don’t read books would pick up (which explains why it has a Stephen King blurb). It’s neither shocking nor messy it’s just tedious and predictable. N ot because it’s just so problematic but because it feels like an airport novel. Out of curiosity I picked up My Dark Vanessa and ended up not finishing it. ![]() |
