Product Description
In this first bilingual edition of the volume, Evelyn Picon Garfield provides a careful translation of Manzano's somber narration. Ivan Schulman introduces the text to place it in historical and cultural context. The Autobiography of a Slave makes available a major literary text and important social document, one that will contribute to the growing interest in Latin American slave societies and African Diaspora history and culture.

This is an excellent edition of an important work. The english translation is well done and the introduction is wonderful. Schulman provides useful and interesting background information as well as thought-provoking insights.
