    WINNER OF THE SCOTIABANK GILLER PRIZE

    'Spellbinding' i
    'Breathtaking' Elle
    'Powerhouses of feeling and depth' Mary Gaitskill
    'Sharp and vital' Daisy Johnson
    'Excellent' Margaret Atwood on Twitter

    An ex-boxer turned nail salon worker falls for a pair of immaculate hands; a mother and daughter harvest earthworms in the middle of the night; a country music-obsessed housewife abandons her family for fantasy; and a young girl's love for her father transcends language.

    In this stunning debut, Souvankham Thammavongsa captures the day-to-day lives of immigrants and refugees in a nameless city, illuminating hopes, disappointments, love affairs, and above all, the pursuit of a place to belong.

    'There is not a moment off in these affecting stories' Sheila Heti
