Samenvatting:

After Trump' s 2016 election, a woman starts a regenerative farm in the Appalachian Mountains— an act of resistance against environmental collapse. But when her engagement unravels under the weight of undiagnosed bipolar disorder and generational trauma, the solitude meant to fuel her activism becomes a crucible for everything she' s spent years avoiding. A DNA test revealing biological siblings sends her deep into the mountain hollers, chasing family secrets and long-lost kin. What she finds is Georgina Mae— her birth mother— whose struggles with addiction and survival echo her own. As she pieces together the past, she must confront the truth: some reunions carry a cost, and some answers are buried with those no longer here to give them. Interwoven with myth and memory, Uprooted is a lyrical mediation on family, identity, inherited trauma, and the strength it takes to grow something new from broken ground.
