This month, we will be discussing The Underground Railroad by Colson Whitehead. In 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. Runaway slave, 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.
We will meet at Sulli Seger’s house at 87 South Avene. Please call or email Sulli at 203-966-8184 or seger87@att.net, if you plan to attend.
