Anna Sewel Libri
30 marzo 1820 – 25 aprile 1878
Anna Sewell fu una donna di profonda compassione, il cui amore per tutta la vita per i cavalli e il desiderio di un loro miglior trattamento portarono alla più celebre storia animale del diciannovesimo secolo. Cresciuta in una rigida famiglia quacchera, le furono instillati valori di autosufficienza, responsabilità morale e 'tenera considerazione per le Creature di Dio'. La sua opera, scritta tra problemi di salute cronici, si erge come una narrazione magistrale raccontata dalla prospettiva di un cavallo. Questo toccante racconto non solo mette in luce la crudeltà della proprietà, ma celebra anche lo spirito resiliente degli animali, sottolineando l'importanza della gentilezza e della comprensione nel legame tra uomo e animale.
