Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe
For convenience' sake, we have said, hitherto, two gentlemen. One of the parties, however, when critically examined, did not seem, strictly speaking, to come under the species. p. 5
Funny.

Wonderful teaser! I've never actually read this book -- just had a very short version read to me in school. I should give it a try one of these days. Hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteAn interesting teaser, lol. This is on my classics TBR shelf, but it may be a while before I get to it. After Anna Karenina, I need a few shorter, less-involved classics before tackling another "heavy" one. Thanks for visiting!
ReplyDeleteNever read this either, very interesting teaser.

I'm not quite sure how to interpret this teaser and I've never read Uncle Tom's Cabin. Does a movie version count? ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing and reminding me of classics, I have to get my hands on!
Also, thanks for visiting our blog.
