小说运用穿插叙述的手段,通过逆来顺受的汤姆和勇于反抗的伊莉莎两条平行线索,生动再现了美国黑人在南方种植园主的盘剥下的悲惨遭遇。汤姆和伊利莎都是好心的谢比尔家的奴隶,谢比尔的儿子乔治尤其喜爱这位汤姆叔叔,常常到小木屋中写字画画。但谢比尔经营失败,不得不将汤姆和伊莉莎五岁的儿子哈利卖给奴隶贩子黑利。伊莉莎为女主人的贴身女仆,听到噩耗连夜带着儿子渡过刚刚解冻的河水,逃到北方。后来丈夫也化装成贵族,逃出魔掌。
汤姆的新主人也是个好心人,然而不久主人去世,他落在红河岸边一个粗暴、残忍的家伙路格里手中,庄园上的黑人每天在皮鞭下拼命苦干,过着非人的生活。处于正义,汤姆协助两名女奴逃走,而他自己却留下来,一次次遭受毒打。就在小乔治赶来看望这位善良的汤姆叔叔时,汤姆已奄奄一息。
小乔治长大后去法国留学,毕业后去了非洲,立志建立一个非洲人自己的国家。

内容简介
Late in the afternoon of a chilly day in February, two gentlemen were sitting alone over their wine, in a well-furnished dining parlor, in the town of P-in Kentucky. There were no servants present, and the gentlemen, with chairs closely approaching, seemed to be discussing some subject with great earnestness.
For convenience sake, we have said, hitherto, two gentlemen. One of the parties, however, when critically examined, did not seem, strictly speaking, to come under the species. He was a short, thickset man, with coarse, commonplace features, and that swaggering air of pretension, which marks a low man who is trying to elbow his way upward in the world
作者简介:Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896) was an American author and abolitionist, whose novel Uncle Tom's Cabin (1852) attacked the cruelty of slavery; it reached millions as a novel and play, and became influential in the U.S. and Britain. It made the political issues of the 1850s regarding slavery tangible to millions, energizing anti-slavery forces in the American North. It angered and embittered the South. The impact is summed up in a commonly quoted statement apocryphally attributed to Abraham Lincoln. When he met Stowe, it is claimed that he said, "So you're the little woman who wrote the book that made this great war!"
