Description
East offers a harrowing glimpse at a post-American diaspora struggling to find its place in the world. In a not-too-distant future, China and other industrial economies have become primary powers, while the United States has become a fractured wasteland.
A 14-year-old boy's search for his mother leads him to emigrate to Asia, where he hopes to find her and a better life. This powerful novel explores issues of immigration, industrialization, and climate displacement, set against a backdrop of uncertainty and struggle.
