An outcast even among her fellow Africans, she is on the cusp of womanhood—where 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Colson Whitehead’s ingenious conception, the Underground Railroad is no mere metaphor: engineers and conductors operate a secret network of actual tracks and tunnels beneath the Southern soil. Cora embarks on a harrowing flight from one state to the next, encountering, like Gulliver, strange yet familiar iterations of her own world at each stop.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs Whitehead brilliantly re-creates the terrors of the antebellum era, he weaves in the saga of our nation, from the brutal abduction of Africans to the unfulfilled promises of the present day.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Underground Railroad\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis both the gripping tale of one woman’s will to escape the horrors of bondage—and a powerful meditation on the history we all share.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"more-link-wrap opened\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"mobile-listen-to-a-clip\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"slot product-listen show\"\u003e\n\u003ca id=\"listenToAClip\" name=\"#listen-to-a-clip\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"more-link-wrap opened\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"scnd-detail\" class=\"product-author-also-by\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"scnd-detail\" class=\"product-author-also-by\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"scnd-detail\" class=\"product-author-also-by\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"slot-header\"\u003ePRODUCT DETAILS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"clearfix isbn-related 9780345804327 show\"\u003ePaperback | $16.95\u003cbr\u003ePublished by Anchor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ws-nw\"\u003eJan 30, 2018\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ws-nw\"\u003e| 336 Pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ws-nw\"\u003e| 5-3\/16 x 8\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ws-nw isbn-row\"\u003e| ISBN 9780345804327\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"mobile-listen-to-a-clip\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"slot product-listen show\"\u003e\n\u003ca id=\"listenToAClip\" name=\"#listen-to-a-clip\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"White Rose Books \u0026 More","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51150207975712,"sku":"9780345804327","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0836\/3661\/7504\/files\/9780345804327_e210fac4-2e96-40f0-8ff1-8cc562374d80.jpg?v=1769236243","url":"https:\/\/creativebysanchez.com\/es\/products\/the-underground-railroad-by-colson-whitehead","provider":"Creative By Sanchez","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
