Jubilee tells the true story of Vyry, the child of a white
plantation owner and his black mistress. Vyry bears witness to the
South's antebellum opulence and to its brutality, its wartime ruin,
and the promises of Reconstruction. Weaving her own family's oral
history with thirty years of research, Margaret Walker's novel
brings the everyday experiences of slaves to light. Jubilee churns
with the hunger, the hymns, the struggles, and the very breath of
American history.
