American Dirt

Picture of the Day for March 24, 2021. A friend gave me the novel American Dirt for Christmas. It’s about a woman who is forced to flee her middle-class life in Acapulco, Mexico with her young son and try to make her way 1,500 miles north across the border to the US. It’s a harrowing and visceral story. I love how fiction can make things more real than 100 non-fiction books combined.
