PULITZER PRIZE WINNERIn Invisible Child, Pulitzer Prize winner Andrea Elliott follows eight dramatic years in the life of Dasani, a girl whose imagination is as soaring as the skyscrapers near her Brooklyn shelter.In this sweeping narrative, Elliott weaves the story of Dasani’s childhood with the history of her ancestors, tracing their passage from slavery to the Great Migration north. She must guide her siblings through a world riddled by hunger, violence, racism, drug addiction, and the threat of foster care. As Dasani comes of age, New York City’s homeless crisis has exploded, deepening the chasm between rich and poor.
It is an astonishing story about the power of resilience, the importance of family and the cost of inequality - told through the crucible of one remarkable girl. Out on the street, Dasani becomes a fierce fighter “to protect those who I love.” When she finally escapes city life to enroll in a boarding school, she faces an impossible question: What if leaving poverty means abandoning your family, and yourself?A work of luminous and riveting prose, Elliott’s Invisible Child reads like a page-turning novel.
