Like Unto Like is a novel written by Sherwood Bonner and published in 1878. The story is set in the American South during the Reconstruction Era, and follows the lives of two women from different backgrounds, one white and one black. The white protagonist, Kate Randal, is a young woman from a wealthy family who falls in love with a poor artist named Guy Thornton. The black protagonist, Dilsy Johnson, is a former slave who becomes a successful businesswoman and falls in love with a black doctor named John. The novel explores themes of race, class, and gender, as well as the challenges faced by individuals trying to break free from the social constraints of their time. The title Like Unto Like refers to the idea that people are naturally drawn to those who are similar to themselves, but the novel challenges this notion by showing how people from different backgrounds can find love and friendship despite their differences. Overall, Like Unto Like is a thought-provoking novel that offers a glimpse into the complexities of life in the American South during a turbulent period in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
