Weisberg's deeply sad but heartfelt short book will haunt you long after you want it to, as you slowly realize that our American borders have become excruciating nightmares for migrants. He shares the chilling stories of artifacts left in the desert like black jugs, carpet shoes, bandanas, and an empty tin. This poignant book describes the border where there is no secure side to be on, no place to safely enter or exit. Weisberg refers to American songs and literature that remind us that perhaps the promise of freedom in America has been broken through these heart wrenching personal encounters and stories. - Dr. Mehnaz Afridi, Manhattan College, author of "Shoah Through Muslim Eyes"
