Tell Me How It Ends
by
Valeria Luiselli
These works share insight into the immigrant experience: the arduous journeys, the heart-breaking separation from culture and family, all in pursuit of a place that promises hope and safety but presents new, everyday challenges and threats. These authors help us bear witness not only to immigrants' resilience and fortitude, but also shed light on the danger imposed on those deemed unwelcome.
