Description

Clotel; or, The President’s Daughter, published in 1853, is the first novel written by an African American. William Wells Brown’s narrative follows the tragic lives of Clotel and her family, exploring the horrors of slavery, racial injustice, and the hypocrisy of American democracy. Drawing on historical figures and abolitionist themes, Brown’s novel challenges readers to confront the moral contradictions of antebellum America. Clotel is a foundational work in African American literature and social critique.
