Middle Passage
A novel in the honorable tradition of Billy Budd and Moby Dick . . . heroic in proportion . . . engrossing.--The New York Times Book Review. Middle Passage is an astonishing work of historical fiction about the slave trade which combines elements of classic 19th-century sea-going novels with the existential angst of a 20th-century philosopher. The result is a resonant work that is completely original and truly unforgettable.
