What would you risk for someone you love? 2001. Newark, NJ. Two teenagers, brought to America as children, now face an uneasy question: what are they willing to sacrifice for a future together in the only country they've ever known? The simple joys of coming-of-age are challenged by the uncertainty of their next chapters. Theirs is a story that fractures time and transcends memory—crossing boundaries, borders and genres in search of a safe place to call home. Pulitzer Prize-winner Martyna Majok brings light to the obstacles faced by DREAMers, lovers and lifelong friends in the heart-stirring and hopeful Sanctuary City.
