Book Ten
Title: The Life of Picking Cotton
Username: Dominique
Summary:
It's 1861 and slavery is still a poplar practice in the American South. 17 year old Clara is a slave, but she desperately wants to be a free woman. She hates the way she lives and her lack of control over anything in her life. She tries to find happiness in her friends and her lessons with her Mistress on reading and writing. Just when Clara is starting to accept that she will never be anything but a slave, her whole world turns upside down. As the southern part of the country rages over the results of the 1860 presidential election, Clara's life on a New Orleans plantation couldn't possibly be any harder. With talk of states succeeding and a big division being caused between the slaves, Clara's life is suddenly filled with drama, danger, and the ever present feeling of hope that change and freedom are right around the corner.
