I, Tituba Black Witch of Salem
Maryse Conde
Based on a real woman ( Tituba was the first woman to be accused, and to confess to, practicing witchcraft in Salem during the 17th century), Maryse Conde brings an old character back to life within the first few pages; her rendition is captivating and her prose is beautifully crafted. While this novel is the type that you cannot put down, beware for it is filled with harrowing tales of oppression and subjugation.
