Written by Harriet Ann Jacobs, using the pen name “Linda Brent,” Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl is an in-depth chronological account of Jacobs’s life as a slave, and the decisions and choices she made to gain freedom for herself and her children. It addresses the struggles and sexual abuse that young women slaves faced on the plantations, and how these struggles were harsher than what men suffered as slaves.
