Publisher Description

'BLISTERING' THE TIMES * 'EXTRAORDINARY' FINANCIAL TIMES

SOON TO BE A MJAOR MOTION PICTURE

A gut-wrenching love story set in the underbelly of New York, about the unexpected connection between an illegal Uyghur migrant and a damaged Iraq veteran.

*Winner of the New York City Book Award for Fiction*
*Finalist for the PEN/Hemingway Award for Fiction*

Set in the underbelly of New York, Preparation for the Next Life exposes an America as seen from the fringes of society and, in devastating detail, destroys the myth of the American Dream through two of the most remarkable characters in contemporary fiction. Powerful, realistic and raw, this is one of the most ambitious – and necessary – novels of our time.
