carstensena 's review for:
We Need New Names
by NoViolet Bulawayo
The writing and the depiction of the immigrant experience are extraordinary. But I dragged myself through this novel, and don't see much teen appeal. I think this is a case of personal preference -- I just didn't feel for the characters, even while I could recognize how powerfully the author expressed the state of living away from one's home country.
