More about the book
Focusing on the perspective of a personified horse, the novel explores themes of animal rights and humane treatment, inspired by the author's own experiences with physical disability. As Black Beauty recounts his life, particularly his transition from a country farm to the harsh realities of pulling cabs in London, he highlights the moral lessons of kindness and empathy for both animals and humans. Sewell's work has significantly impacted legislation for animal protection and influenced attitudes towards animal suffering, leaving a lasting legacy in literature about animal life.
