SuitabookThe far away brothers
Lauren Markham
- Reading
- Consider reading together or checking in at natural pauses, especially around the journey and court proceedings. The book also includes references and an index for following up on policy questions.
- Themes
- Migration and belonging: The twins leave El Salvador and try to make lives in California while navigating school, work and immigration proceedings. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Immigration policy: The book is presented as an investigation of US immigration policy alongside the twins’ experiences as unaccompanied minors. Policy is a substantial subject, but its specific arguments and the book’s assessment of particular policies are not established.
- Worth knowing
- These events may merit discussion together.
