This novel. Wow. So many textures and sounds. That is what comes to mind.
A young girl from Haiti comes to America, specifically Detroit, and she must fight to survive and save the people she loves. Picking up this novel, I never fathom it would go in the direction that it went. American Street starts with tragedy and ends with tragedy, but there is so much in between. I definitely recommend.
