Despite its sometimes archaic language and certain naivety entirely due to the age of its production, Uncle Tom’s Cabin is an indispensable read in the young reader and learner reading list.
The heart-breaking story, full of Biblical quotes and interpretations, terrifying scenes of human degradation and thrilling descriptions of pure saintliness and greatness, both on the whites and blacks’ side, will impress readers deeply and make them realise, accept and respect simple realities in life, such as diversity, equality, tolerance and dignity.
