From the widely acclaimed, best-selling author of American War, a new novel—beautifully written, unrelentingly dramatic, and profoundly moving—that looks at the global refugee crisis through the eyes of a child.“It is one thing to put a human face on a migrant crisis and another to do so in so compelling a way that a reader simply cannot put your book down." —Gish Jen, author of The ResistersMore bodies have washed up on the shores of a small island. Another overfilled, ill-equipped, dilapidated ship has sunk under the weight of its too many passengers: Syrians, Ethiopians, Egyptians, Lebanese, Palestinians, all of them desperate to escape untenable lives back in their homelands. But miraculously, someone has survived the passage: nine-year-old Amir, a Syrian boy who is soon rescued by Vänna. Vänna is a teenage girl, who, despite being native to the island, experiences her own sense of homelessness in a place and among people she has come to disdain. And though Vänna and Amir are complete strangers, though they don’t speak a common language, Vänna is determined to do whatever it takes to save the boy. In alternating chapters, we learn about Amir’s life and how he came to be on the boat, and we follow him and the girl as they make their way toward safety. What Strange Paradise is the story of two children finding their way through a hostile world. But it is also a story of empathy and indifference, of hope and despair—and about the way each of those things can blind us to reality.

’I taught you to fight and to fly. What more could there be?’-- J.M. Barrie Peter PanIt began when the water supply began to dwindle, and water shortages began to threaten not only the farmers livelihood, but everyone depending on the food they produced as the years passed. The scarcity of food increased the anxiety over food, creating panic, creating a need to seek out a new way of life, a new place to call home where food was plentiful.People living through a crisis, dying through this crisis, with only one goal in mind. To find a place where there is food, and a life that offers hope for the future. A simple request, it seems - the basics - food, water, a simple place to sleep at night.This story begins as one of the passengers, a young boy, lies on the shore, surrounded by the boat’s wreckage, as well as the passengers. The storm has passed, the sea now calm, and the morning is eerily quiet, except for the sounds of birds and sirens in the distance, and those crowd of people who have gathered to take in the scene.One passenger manages to survive, a nine-year-old Syrian boy named Amir. He is found by Vänna, a teenage girl who is single-minded in her desire to save him from the fate she knows he is destined for without help. Although neither speaks the other’s language, he seems to understand when she beckons him without a word. With the men’s voices growing louder in the background, he doesn’t hesitate to follow her.Alternating chapters share the story of before, the story of what brought Amir to be one of the passengers on this boat is shared through, as well as the journey in the days after, following Amir’s journey in search of a new home and safety. But at the same time, it is more than that. It is a story that exposes the lack of compassion, selfishness and callousness of some to the plight of others, while also sharing the willingness of some to reach out to those in desperate circumstances. It is a powerfully tender story, at times, shared through graceful prose about a child hunted because of their status as a refugee and the unvarnished truth of the indifference of too many. Sometimes even one person can make the difference.Many thanks for the ARC provided by Random House / Knopf
