Description

As America is consumed by tensions over immigration and the question of which bodies are welcome, we find ourselves at a crossroads, in grave danger of forgetting who we are as a nation. To remind us, The Good Immigrant hands the microphone to an astonishing array of writers who are also first- and second-generation immigrants and who share powerful personal stories of living between cultures and languages while struggling to figure out where they belong. By turns painful and hilarious, troubling and uplifting, the essays in The Good Immigrant come together to create a provocative, conversation-sparking, multivocal portrait of America now. Book jacket.
