![James — Percival Everett
Having read Uncle Tom’s Cabin, I was familiar with the horrors of slavery in literature, but Everett approaches the subject through satire, irony and linguistic ingenuity, exposing the moral contradictions of a society founded upon human ownership.

I have never considered basic human decency an exceptional virtue. Empathy, compassion and respect ought to be fundamental, not accomplishments deserving extraordinary praise. Perhaps that is why I found myself questioning the necessity of James’s resilience rather than celebrating it. Why should intelligence or courage ever be prerequisites for an ordinary human existence?
Equally compelling was James’s questioning of the white God. How could people profess faith in a compassionate deity while claiming moral authority over another person’s existence? What disturbed me was not the difference in religious interpretation, but the conviction that such interpretations could legitimise the denial of another’s humanity.
There is something profoundly moving about James writing his own name. In a novel concerned with language, power and the ownership of human lives, the simple act of naming oneself becomes an assertion of intellectual and personal sovereignty.
I loved particularly Everett’s examination of language and intellect. James must consciously disguise his intelligence, performing the very inferiority that white society invokes to justify his enslavement. The absurdity of this logic fascinated me: a society so convinced of its intellectual superiority that it demands the suppression of another’s intellect to preserve that conviction.
The very idea of a good master is a moral contradiction.
