Produktbeschreibung
The novel discusses an era in the history of Negroes, the era of the slave trade that led ships from the jungles of Africa towards the sugar cane plantations and fields in Europe and America in the dirtiest trade the world has ever seen. After his great-grandfather, Kunta Kinta, set foot on the coast of America in 1776 AD, as a slave, he was hunted by the whites in his native Africa, just as animals are hunted. He was brought with others on a long, exhausting journey during which many died, across a raging sea the likes of which he had never seen before. It took more than four months, to be sold. He and others like him are auctioned off after having their bodies painted to shine like good ebony. And his tragedy begins on the ground without a glimmer of hope. The novel was published in 1976 and was translated into about 35 languages, selling more than 50 million copies and becoming the basis for a television series of the same name that achieved unparalleled success.
