In this book, Nayeri weaves together her own vivid story with the stories of other refugees and asylum seekers in recent years, bringing us inside their daily lives and taking us through the different stages of their journeys, from escape to asylum to resettlement. She settled in Oklahoma, then made her way to Princeton University. Eventually she was granted asylum in America. What is it like to be a refugee? It is a question many of us do not give much thought to, and yet there are more than 25 million refugees in the world.Īged eight, Dina Nayeri fled Iran along with her mother and brother and lived in the crumbling shell of an Italian hotel-turned-refugee camp.
