Description
Viet Thanh Nguyen brings together 17 fellow refugee writers from across the globe to share their experiences in this powerful collection. The result is a dispatch from the individual lives behind current headlines, shedding light on the complexities of displacement and its impact on people's lives. Today, the world faces an enormous refugee crisis, with millions fleeing persecution and conflict from various parts of the world. Yet, despite the need for help, anti-immigration politics and fear seem to be shutting doors in many countries. This book offers a unique perspective on the human side of this issue, highlighting the stories and experiences of individuals who have been displaced. The writers featured in this collection are accomplished in their own right, with backgrounds as diverse as their lives. Their contributions offer a range of themes and insights, making this a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of refugee lives.
