Greetings, everyone: I hope your Second Sunday went well.
I finished the Imitation of Christ over the weekend, and have now begun to read a glorious work by Edward P. Jones called "The Known World". although it's not as "vintage" as the Imitation, it's very well written. The story is that of an African American slave in the 1800s who was enslaved to two white masters, and now is the overseer slave for a black master. Mr. Jones effectively stimulates my thinking about the arcane moral complexities of slavery and "the price of man", if you will. Although I've read but 42 pages, I would already reccomend this book to anyone who has any resemblance to a passion for history.
Fascinating, by all accounts.
