Reading this novel brought out a variety of emotions and this caused me to read it from different emotional perspectives. One of these is a sentimental view. When I think about what it means to be sentimental my first thought is memories and how easily they can come flooding back, both good and bad. Also, I think about love and the people that I love, along with that the attachments that I feel for the people that I love. But in order to think about the book for what the author is trying to get across means that we cannot leave out the connections and relevance that the books examines.
This novel went against the cultural norms of the time and looked deeper into human morals, the message against slavery, and the theme of slavery itself. While reading the novel I noticed the different identities of the characters, as well as insight into human nature. Finally I noticed a strong theme of Christianity and slavery pertaining to what the two have in common.
