Description
Set in the underbelly of New York, Preparation for the Next Life is a gut-wrenching love story about an unexpected connection between two individuals from different walks of life. An illegal Uyghur migrant and a damaged Iraq veteran form a bond that exposes the harsh realities of America's fringes.
This powerful and realistic novel destroys the myth of the American Dream, revealing a complex and often devastating portrait of contemporary society. With its raw and unflinching portrayal of two remarkable characters, Preparation for the Next Life is an ambitious and necessary read.
