Edited by Maikki Friberg

"Tuomo sedän tupa" by Harriet Beecher Stowe is an anti-slavery novel published in 1852. The story revolves around Uncle Tom, a long-suffering enslaved man, and the lives intertwined with his. Written to expose slavery's horrors while championing Christian love as a solution, this sentimental novel became America's best-selling book of the 19th century after the Bible. It profoundly influenced attitudes toward African Americans and slavery, helping fuel the abolitionist movement and laying groundwork for the Civil War.
