Colson Whitehead’s 2016 novel reimagines the historical Underground Railroad as a literal subterranean network of tracks and tunnels. Through the harrowing journey of Cora, an escaped slave fleeing a Georgia plantation, the narrative explores the brutal realities of American chattel slavery while weaving in elements of speculative fiction. This Pulitzer Prize-winning work offers a profound examination of the systemic trauma and the enduring quest for freedom in the antebellum South.
