Darling is only ten years old, and yet she must navigate a fragile and violent world. In Zimbabwe, she and her friends grasp at memories of before. Before their homes were destroyed by paramilitary policemen, before the school closed, before the fathers left for dangerous jobs abroad. Darling has a chance to escape to America. She travels to this new land in search of America's famous abundance only to find that her options as an immigrant are perilously few.
