relative to this story, are these views being

Solomon Northup Peculiar Institution

unreal aura surrounding it. Modern perspectives
cannot be empathetic because it is not an

reading Eugene Genovese's Roll, Jordan, Roll and
examining most of the aspects of slave life,
slavery still remains a mystery in the personal
sense. Solomon Northup's Twelve Years a Slave, in
addition to being one of Genovese's own resources,
fills this void wit...

not Gatsby (his real name is Get). He is a
