“A remarkable novel ” – Lost Children Archive by Valeria Luiselli #WomensPrize2019

"The thread which runs through the novel is that of echoes in various concepts. The echoes of sounds reverberating in natural caves or tunnel spaces. Echoes in the sense of mirroring, in which similar events occur in parallel in different locations, like the slow disintegration of the narrator's family unit during the road trip and the break-up of families as a result of the immigration crisis. Echoes in the sense of replications which gradually fade and eventually end in loss. The notion of familial loss through separation, both chosen and enforced, and through death lie simultaneously at the novel's core and at its conclusion..." - Carola Huttmann reviews Lost Children Archive by Valeria Luiselli
