Lost Children Archive
by Valeria Luiselli
I read Tell Me How It Ends and liked it very much. It was small and full of quotable text about the absurdities of the US immigration system. This book was nothing like that one.
It was long. None of the characters were named. The ma character narrated the first half of the book and part way through her chapters I grew tired of her nonspecific droning on about how her marriage was ending. She pulled me back in a bit before her chapters ended. The boy narrated the second half, he was the 10 year old stepson. His sections were more interesting and I thought the author did a good job writing from a 10 year old's perspective.
