Born to a wealthy family in West Africa around 1770, Omar Ibn Said was abducted and sold into slavery in the United States, where he came to the attention of a prominent North Carolina family after filling "the walls of his room with piteous petitions to be released, all written in the Arabic language," as one local newspaper reported. Ibn Said soon became a local celebrity, and in 1831 he was asked to write his life story, producing the only known surviving American slave narrative written in Arabic.

This “read” is like listening to hours of the presentation of the author’s Ph. D. thesis. The “meat of the matter” is the brief appendix at the end—and even that is not enough to begin to get a feel for Omar’s life or hardships. I cannot recommend this purchase unless you consider yourself forewarned by what l have written.

Audible needs to clean this up. I cannot select items—that is dated issues of the news to delete. Going to phone and bitch at someone.
