Beskrivelse af We and Our Neighbors
What do expectations and social problems have to do with romance? How much does society decide who you should be with? Harry and Eva are about to find out!
In this sequel to Stowe’s famous novel 'My Wife and I', Harry and Eva continue their relationship in New York only to find their romance has never been quite so challenging.
Skeptical of women’s roles and their domestic positions, the story criticizes stale social norms. Lighthearted and entertaining, but also calling for a change, this is a delightful read reminiscent of other social critics such as Charles Dickens and Louisa May Alcott.
A thorn in the angry eyes of American slave owners, Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896) was an American author and ardent abolitionist. Her novel 'Uncle Tom’s Cabin' (1852) became one of the most famous literary attacks on slavery at the time. The novel was also turned into a play and adapted to the movie screen more than once. The latest version from 1987 features Samuel L. Jackson, one of the most popular actors of his generation.
Stowe also wrote numerous travel memoirs, letters, articles, and short stories – all crucial to the depiction of the injustice of African Americans we still hear about today.
