Listen "170 - I, Tituba, Black Witch of Salem"
Episode Synopsis
Correction: in the epsiode we say that the book was published in Barbados, but Condé is actually from the island of Guadeloupe - a French department in the Carribbean. Now THIS is the type of historical fiction that we love. Corinne's pick for March's prompt to read a book with a name in the title is I, Tituba: Black Witch of Salem by Maryse Condé. This novel is a fictionalized account of Tituba, an enslaved woman from Barbados who became the first person accused of being a witch during the Salem Witch Trials. Content warning: sexual assault, suicide, violence Our next book discussion will be The Extinction of Irena Rey by Jennifer Croft. You can find it at your local bookstore or library and read along with us.
