    Spanish Description

    My Name Is Not Angelica

    Arrancada de su tierra africana por traficantes de esclavos, la joven Raisha sobrevive a un penoso viaje por el Atlántico solo para ser vendida en un mercado de esclavos en la isla de San Juan, en el Caribe. Obligada a trabajar en la casa de un colono danés dueño de una plantación, pronto descubre los horrores que sufren otros esclavos. Narrada en primera persona por la valiente Raisha, esta poderosa novela histórica revive la verdadera rebelión de esclavos de 1733 en San Juan, un acto de resistencia mucho antes de la abolición formal de la esclavitud.

    About the Book

    Torn from her African homeland by slave traders, young Raisha survives a brutal voyage across the Atlantic only to be sold at a slave market on the island of St. John in the Caribbean. Forced to work in the household of a Danish plantation owner, she soon discovers the true horrors endured by enslaved people around her. Told in Raisha's own courageous voice, this powerful historical novel brings to life the real 1733 slave uprising on St. John, a defiant act of resistance more than a century before slavery's formal abolition.
