Description
It is at more than one hundred and ten years of age that Jane undertakes to tell the story of her life. Slavery during the Civil War, the wandering to try to reach Ohio, the land of the liberating Yankees, the work on the white plantations of Louisiana, the fight for equality. Jane Pittman, heroine and narrator, leads this moving chronicle in her colorful language. Inspired by the story of a former slave, this novel could be called "One Hundred Years of Servitude".
