Chicory
DESCRIPTIONIn the early 1900s, Georgia Allen leaves The Field, a former plantation on the outskirts of Rome, Georgia, to travel to Chicago. A wealthy man goes missing. A house is built for reluctant and retiring whores. A greedy thief hides in plain sight. Fires are set just as soon as they are extinguished. And a secret columnist knows the truth about it all. Members of a matriarch’s family enter and exit the world with secrets pressed down into the earth deeper than Georgia clay. Yet, little by little, parts of a checkered past emerge like bodies floating up from the murky waters of the Chicago River.
By the 1950s, Georgia’s only daughter produces three of her own female children. All filled with the same grit as their grandmother, each woman is given a chance at redemption. Mysteries surface and unravel as newer kinfolk sort through remnants of a past dead, buried, and left for dead.
