52 reviewsValeri Luisell’s masterful novel is full of echoes and reflections as it intertwines two very different journeys to the same destination - that of a family whose road trip across America collides with an immigration crisis at the southwestern border.
"The novel truly becomes novel again in [Luiselli's] hands... perceptive, irreplaceable, wonderfully odd... Luiselli drives home just how much pain and sacrifice we are prepared to accept in the lives of others. She dramatizes what it takes for people to stare hard at their own families, to examine their complicity in other people’s suffering." - Parul Sehgal, The New York Times
A New York family sets out on a road trip. Mum, dad, two kids. They head southwest to the Apacheria, the region of the US which used to be Mexico. They stop at diners when they’re hungry and sleep in motels when it gets dark. Meanwhile, thousands of children head north to the US border from Central America and Mexico. Not all of them will make it, in Valeri Luisell’s urgent story about what it is to be human in an inhuman world.
Told through several compelling voices, blending texts, sounds, and images, Lost Children Archive is an astonishing feat of literary virtuosity. It is a richly engaging story of how we document our experiences, and how we remember the things that matter to us the most. With urgency and empathy, it takes us deep into the lives of one remarkable family as it probes the nature of justice and equality today.
"The Lost Children Archive is simply stunning. It is a perfect intervention for our horrible time, but that fleeting concurrence is not why this book will be read and sampled and riffed on for years to come ... The Lost Children Archive contains multitudes, and contradictions, and raises difficult questions for which there are no easy answers. It is a great American novel. It is also a great human novel." - Rob Spillman, Guernica
