serenaj 's review for:
Lost Children Archive
by Valeria Luiselli
At times overly academic, but overall a really well-done read. Major credit goes out to Professor Carpio for explaining this book's complexity and how Luiselli intentionally creates flawed characters to intercept the reader's empathy and self-projection so as to better focus on the stories of "lost" children. I would absolutely recommend reading this book alongside [b:The Undocumented Americans|41880092|The Undocumented Americans|Karla Cornejo Villavicencio|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1581615133l/41880092._SY75_.jpg|55079158] because both strive to archive the migrant experience but have vastly different takes and styles of doing so. This book was just so SMART. One of my hum10 favorites so far.
