Lost Children Archive: A novel: Luiselli, Valeria: 9780525436461

Lost Children Archive is a powerful and timely novel that explores the unraveling of an artist couple's marriage and their two children's attempts to make sense of it all.

Through ephemera such as songs, maps, and a Polaroid camera, the children try to understand both their family's crisis and the larger one engulfing the news - the stories of thousands of kids trying to cross the southwestern border into the United States but getting detained or lost in the desert along the way.

This is a feat of literary virtuosity that is compassionate, subtly hilarious, and formally inventive.

Don't miss out on this urgent and powerful story about what it means to be human in an inhuman world.
