一部《湯姆叔叔的小屋》引發美國內戰； 一篇〈拜倫夫人真實的一生〉引起英國譁然， 透過日記及書信，本書帶你重新認識這位極具正義的多產作家 ──哈里特‧伊莉莎白‧比徹‧斯托 「有幸跟斯托夫人成為鄰居，並陪伴她走到人生的終點。她是我寫作上的啟蒙者，更是我生活中的好朋友，她的作品引領了廢奴文學的興起，更喚醒了社會平權意識。好在這些都被其子查理斯‧斯托先生詳細地記錄下來，為後人留下這部權威的《斯托夫人傳》。這是一部寶貴的精神財富。」──美國大文豪馬克‧吐溫（Mark Twain） 「斯托夫人的《湯姆叔叔的小屋》作為一部文學作品，它是『文學史上最偉大的勝利』；《斯托夫人傳》作為一部傳記，它是『傳記史上最為客觀的』經典作品，儘管它出自其子查理斯‧斯托。」──美國著名詩人亨利‧華茲華斯‧朗費羅（Henry Wadsworth Longfellow） 「斯托夫人不僅是多產作家，在美國乃至世界文壇的地位舉足輕重；她同時更是一位社會運動家，作品和行動都影響了美國的社會，公正地建立和左右了廢奴運動。這些細節你會在閱讀《斯托夫人傳》中尋覓得到。」──《紐約時報書評版》（The New York Times Book Review） 「斯托夫人的經典作品《湯姆叔叔的小屋》在我們週刊連載的最後一期結語中，曾謙虛地說這部書是上帝寫的，她只是上帝的一支筆而已。我們都知道偉大的作品背後必然是作家悲天憫人的情懷，好在其子為我們揭開了斯托夫人的創作靈感和前後的背景，這部傳記也幫讀者走近這位堅強果敢的『小婦人』」。──《民族時代》（The National Era） ▷▶▷▶ ▎《湯姆叔叔的小屋》 我無法控制這個故事的長度，它是自然而然從我的筆下流淌下來的。 1851年，斯托夫人開始在《民族時代》上連載《湯姆叔叔的小屋》，當時宣布要連載3個月左右，但直到1852年4月1日才結束。當時，編輯都認為這是只有十幾個章節的普通故事而已，沒想到，讀者不斷要求繼續連載且各方都給予了正面評價與鼓勵。最為重要的是，斯托夫人相信自己肩負著神聖使命，正是這樣的使命感驅使她不斷拓展故事，直到原本看似平淡無奇的故事成為一部聞名世界的偉大傑作。 ▎《牧師的求婚》與《奧爾島的珍珠》 我再也見不到我親愛兒子的臉龐，無法再撫摸著他的肩膀，無法再聽到他的聲音了。這件事沒有削弱我對上帝的任何信仰，但我也不認為上帝的這一切安排都是正確的。 18
