Miss Jane Pittman. She is one of the most unforgettable heroines in American fiction, a woman whose life has come to symbolize the struggle for freedom, dignity, and justice. Ernest J. Gainesâs now-classic novelâwritten as an autobiographyâspans one hundred years of Miss Janeâs remarkable life, from her childhood as a slave on a Louisiana plantation to the Civil Rights era of the 1960s. It is a story of courage and survival, history, bigotry, and hopeâas seen through the eyes of a woman who lived through it all. A historical tour de force, a triumph of fiction, Miss Janeâs eloquent narrative brings to life an important story of race in Americaâand stands as a landmark work for our time.
