About The Underground Railroad

<p><i>From Pulitzer Prize-winning author&nbsp;<b>Colson Whitehead</b>, a magnificent, wrenching, thrilling tour de force chronicling a young slave's adventures as she makes a desperate bid for freedom in the antebellum South</i></p><p>Cora is a young slave on a cotton plantation in Georgia. An outcast even among her fellow Africans, she is on the cusp of womanhood - where even greater pain awaits. And so when Caesar, a slave who has recently arrived from Virginia, urges her to join him on the Underground Railroad, she seizes the opportunity and escapes with him. In Whitehead's ingenious conception, the&nbsp;<i>Underground Railroad&nbsp;is no mere metaphor</i>: engineers and conductors operate a secret network of actual tracks and tunnels beneath the Southern soil.&nbsp; Like Gulliver, Cora encounters different worlds at each stage of her journey — Whitehead brilliantly recreates the unique terrors of black people in states in the pre-Civil War era.&nbsp;<b>The Underground Railroad</b>&nbsp;is at once a kinetic adventure tale of one woman's ferocious will to escape the horrors of bondage, and a shattering, powerful meditation on the history we all share.</p><p><i>"Every now and then a book comes along that reaches the marrow of your bones, settles in, and stays forever. This is one. It's a tour de force, and I don't say that lightly."</i>&nbsp; &nbsp;-&nbsp;<b>Oprah Winfrey</b>, O: The Oprah Magazine</p><p><b>Colson Whitehead</b><i>&nbsp;is the author of the novels Zone One; Sag Harbor; The Intuitionist, a finalist for the PEN/Hemingway award; John Henry Days, which won the Young Lions Fiction Award, the Anisfield-Wolf Book Award, and was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize; and Apex Hides the Hurt, winner of the PEN Oakland Award.&nbsp;</i></p>
