American Dirt

Wow, what an amazing book! Definitely the best book I have read in a while. It has unusual emotional depth and insight. Beautifully written and a powerful, moving story. I can completely understand why this has been called “the great American novel of our time.” But really it's just a great novel of our time because it tells a story that is international in nature and could probably be representative of the struggles people are facing in many places around the globe.
