All over this country, there are refugees. But beyond the headlines, few know who they are, how they live, or what they have lost. Now, with nativism on the rise, Kao Kalia Yang—herself a Hmong refugee—has gathered stories of the stateless who today call the Twin Cities home.
In Yang’s exquisite, necessary telling, these fourteen stories for refugee journeys restore history and humanity to America's strangers and redeem its long tradition of welcome.
No time to read the book?! Join us anyway- we'll have a discussion and Q&A with the author, Kao Kalia Yang, to go even deeper into the incredible stories in Somewhere in the Unknown World.
