About Lawrence Hill

Critical Praise

"A mesmerizing, utterly compelling journey into the heart of slavery, The Book of Negroes is destined to join the great classics of our times. Inside a world of brutality, a powerful spirit is evoked with such sensitivity and lyricism that it is impossible not to be deeply moved, and impossible to stop reading. Lawrence Hill has embodied the narrator completely, and I in turn felt intimately connected to this wondrous woman. Stylistically flawless, thematically layered and historically fascinating, this novel is a masterpiece."

— Edeet Ravel, author of A Wall of Light and Look for Me
