Free audible download uncle toms cabin pdf

This was very hard for me to get used to. A work of art. Moving and emotional. True American masterpiece in every way,. Absolutely no one should miss out on this book! What made the experience of listening to Uncle Tom's Cabin the most enjoyable? This is a book of genius. Lincoln looks at the Author and told her that she, and her book, was the cause of the Civil War. That may be a simplification, but it played a huge role in mobilizing the society against slavery.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Uncle Tom's Cabin? Everything, from front to back. What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? I am very sorry to say, but I gave up after half of a first chapter. The story seems to be great, as all important though horrifying stories are, but for me it is just "un-listenable".

The performance is unacceptable. Sarah reads way too fast, she "swallows" ends of the words, combines words together and her attempts to change voices and imitate accents makes listening even more confusing. I just have general impression of what happened in the fragment I've listened to, majority of it was just lost on me. What reaction did this book spark in you?

Anger, sadness, disappointment? Unfortunately, in my opinion, this interpretation of Uncle Tom's Cabin is not worth even this little money it costs. It's very disappointing. I recommend that everyone should read this accurate portrayal of the darkness that was slavery. Such a racist comment it has become "being an uncle Tom" that also is an unacceptable assumption. Tom wasn't bowing to the white man, he was putting his faith in the Lord Jesus and his perfect teachings.

Tom was the perfect example of a disciple to Jesus. I will try to live like Uncle Tom. I'd read another book by the author, but will definitely avoid this narrator in future. There were many, some memorable because of the terrible tragedy of them,others for the heroism of the characters. Many of these scenes were based on true events. How could the performance have been better? Although the narrator has a good voice and used an appropriate accent, the performance was jerky, the expression often didn't match the meaning, and many words were mispronounced.

I got the impression that the narrator had not practised before she made the recording. Did Uncle Tom's Cabin inspire you to do anything? It brought home to me the horrors of slavery, and it also helped me understand some of the complicated reasons why this abuse of human beings persisted and was so difficult to end.

It inspires me to think about what abuses still continue today, to which I may be turning a blind eye and which I may feel more comfortable to leave unchallenged, in the way that many basically good people allowed slavery to continue unchallenged. Any additional comments? The author must have been courageous to write this famous book, and I understand it had a profound effect on the history of the United States.

The narration unfortunately does not do it justice. Ive wanted to get this book for ages but the narration is terrible. I will buy the book instead. One of the parties, however, when critically examined, did not seem, strictly speaking, to come under the species. He was a short, thick-set man, with coarse, commonplace features, and that swaggering air of pretension which marks a low man who is trying to elbow his way upward in the world.

He was much over-dressed, in a gaudy vest of many colors, a blue neckerchief, bedropped gayly with yellow spots, and arranged with a flaunting tie, quite in keeping with the general air of the man.

Late in the afternoon of a chilly day in February, two gentlemen were sitting alone over their wine, in a well-furnished dining parlor, in the town of P-, in Kentucky. There were no servants present, and the gentlemen, with chairs closely approaching, seemed to be discussing some subject with great earnestness.

For convenience sake, we have said, hitherto, two gentlemen. One of the parties, however, when critically examined, did not seem, strictly speaking, to come under the species.
