I loved this book. Loved the format, the story, the realism, the questions. A must read. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

If a book can help those of us who live in safety and privilege to begin to understand a refugee and asylum seeker‘s experience, then this is the book. A young Syrian refugee is no longer able to speak after her traumatic migration to England. Her heartbreaking and harrowing experiences are revealed as she observes her neighbors in the apartment complex where she lives. She writes articles for The New Press as The Voiceless. When her articles begin to garner attention, her editor asks for more. As her story unfolds slowly, piece by piece, the tension becomes ever more taut. I cannot leave this book behind. It was difficult to read - difficult to accept the horrible experiences. I have no regrets.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the chance to read this arc in exchange for an honest review.
