Every Man A Slave Historical Novel, on the long side, but everyone I know who started it enjoyed it ’till the end (and I’ve recommended it to a number of people). Set before and during the Civil War, it depicts a frum Jew in the South who purchases a slave Al Pi Halacha and the relationships that develop. It’s well written and seemingly well researched (my knowledge of history is weak, but those in the know have agreed).
