Soldiers and Kings: Survival and Hope in the World of Human Smuggling by Jason De León
challenging
informative
reflective
fast-paced
5.0
picked up on audio after the National Book Awards. appreciate this ethnographical account of some of the smugglers leading people north to the US border and the complicated reasons people end up in that line of work.
this is focused on the lives of the smugglers that he gets to know, would be interesting to read a memoir by the author at some point too.
pairs well with: Everyone Who Is Gone is Here (Jonathan Blitzer)
