Book Synopsis
Remembrance by Rita Woods is a breakout historical debut with modern resonance, perfect for the many fans of The Underground Railroad and Orphan Train.
Remembrance...It's a rumor, a whisper passed in the fields and veiled behind sheets of laundry. A hidden stop on the underground road to freedom, a safe haven protected by more than secrecy...if you can make it there.
Ohio, present day. An elderly woman who is more than she seems warns against rising racism as a young woman grapples with her life.
Review Quotes
Stunning. ... Family is at the core of Remembrance, the breathtaking debut novel by Rita Woods. --The Boston Globe
An ambitious, absorbing novel. ... Woods creates memorable characters in all four settings, each with a distinct purpose that helps make the impossible relatable. Remembrance is a well-researched, epic historical fantasy. -- NPR Woods' writing is assured, the historical settings vivid, and her characters fully realized. Hand this to fans of Yaa Gyasi's Homegoing and Octavia Butler's Kindred, who will appreciate this complex, genre-blending debut. --Booklist Fine attention to sensory details and brutal honesty concerning the horrors of slavery and racial relations over more than two centuries of American history make this a standout. --Publishers WeeklyThe novel's originality makes it worth reading. --Kirkus Reviews

Loved this book! I was hooked however the ending left me with nothing. Hopefully there will be a sequel. To make sense of why it ended the way it did.
