Darling is only ten years old, yet she must navigate this fragile and cruel world. In Zimbabwe, Darling and her friends steal guavas, play "countries," and cling to memories of "before." Before their homes were destroyed by armed police, before their school closed, before their fathers left for dangerous jobs abroad.

But Darling has a chance to escape—to move to America, where her aunt lives. Darling sets off for this new country in search of the abundance she's heard so much about, but faces all the difficulties of emigration.

In her debut, award-winning NoViolet Bulawayo, through a child's eyes, reveals the horrors of a world unjust and precarious.
