Under the Tulip Tree
When the Great Depression leaves aspiring writer Rena Leland adrift, she finds an unexpected purpose interviewing former slaves for a government project. Her focus sharpens on Frankie Washington, a centenarian whose harrowing experiences as a slave deeply affect Rena, especially when she uncovers her own family's complicity in the brutal institution. This powerful intergenerational friendship, forged through shared stories and painful truths, forces Rena to confront her own history and the enduring legacy of slavery.
