Solomon is one of probably many free men who were sold into slavery. Remembering that this is a true story makes it hard to swallow. It is heavy material that cannot be “binged”. I can applaud Solomon for writing his story. In that aspect, I give him 5 stars. I did wish there was more about his life after those 12 years.
