En 'El ferrocarril subterrani', Colson Whitehead nos presenta a Cora, una joven esclava en una plantación de algodón en Georgia, en los tiempos previos a la Guerra Civil Americana. Tras una brutal agresión, Cora decide huir a través del ferrocarril subterráneo, una red clandestina que promete una nueva vida. Sin embargo, su escape se ve marcado por la implacable persecución de Ridgeway, un cazador de recompensas, que la embarca en un viaje frenético en busca de la libertad. Whitehead entrelaza historia y ficción para explorar la brutalidad de la esclavitud y la búsqueda de la libertad en una obra que ha sido galardonada con el National Book Award y el Premio Pulitzer.
