Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Recently discovered, the earliest known prison memoir by an African American writer, comparable to The Bondswoman's Narrative and 12 Years a Slave in historical importance and narrative power.The earliest known prison memoir by an African American writer-recently discovered and authenticated… by a team of Yale scholars-sheds light on the longstanding connection between race and incarceration in America." A harrowing portrait of life behind bars . . . part confession, part jeremiad, part lamentation, part picaresque novel (reminiscent, at times, of Dickens and Defoe)."-Michiko Kakutani, The New York TimesNAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLEIn 2009, scholars at Yale University came across a startling manuscript- the memoir of Austin Reed, a free black man born in the 1820s who spent most of his early life ricocheting between forced labor in prison and forced labor as an indentured servant. Lost for more than one hundred and fifty years, the handwritten document is the first known prison memoir written by an African American. Corroborated by prison records and other documentary sources, Reed's text gives a gripping first-person account of an antebellum Northern life lived outside slavery that nonetheless bore, in its day-to-day details, unsettling resemblances to that very institution.Now, for the first time, we can hear Austin Reed's story as he meant to tell it. He was born to a middle-class black family in the boomtown of Rochester, New York, but when his father died, his mother struggled to make ends meet. Still a child, Reed was placed as an indentured servant to a nearby family of white farmers near Rochester. He was caught attempting to set fire to a building and sentenced to ten years at Manhattan's brutal House of Refuge, an early juvenile reformatory that would soon become known for beatings and forced labor.Seven years later, Reed found himself at New York's infamous Auburn State Prison. It was there that he finished writing this memoir, which explores America's first reformatory and first industrial prison from an inmate's point of view, recalling the great cruelties and kindnesses he experienced in those places and excavating patterns of racial segregation, exploitation, and bondage that extended beyond the boundaries of the slaveholding South, into free New York.Accompanied by fascinating historical documents (including a series of poignant letters written by Reed near the end of his life), The Life and the Adventures of a Haunted Convict is a work of uncommon beauty that tells a story of nineteenth-century racism, violence, labor, and captivity in a proud, defiant voice. Reed's memoir illuminates his own life and times-as well as ours today.Praise for The Life and the Adventures of a Haunted Convict"One of the most fascinating and important memoirs ever produced in the United States."-Annette Gordon-Reed, The Washington Post"Remarkable . . . triumphantly defiant . . . The book's greatest value lies in the gap it fills."-O- The Oprah Magazine"Reed displays virtuosic gifts for narrative that, a century and a half later, earn and hold the reader's ear."-Thomas Chatterton Williams, San Francisco Chronicle" The book's urgency and relevance remain undiminished. . . . This exemplary edition recovers history without permanently trapping it in one interpretation."-The Guardian"A sensational, novelistic telling of an eventful life."-The Paris Review"Vivid and painful."-NPR"Lyrical and graceful in one sentence, burning with fury and hellfire in the next."-Columbus Free Press A rare and original autobiography, a first-person account of a young black man's life as an indentured servant, a juvenile delinquent, and a prisoner in New York State in the mid-nineteenth century. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
