Offering a nuanced and transformative take on immigration, multiculturalism, and America's role on the global stage, The Newcomers follows and reflects on the lives of 22 immigrant teenagers throughout the course of their 2015-2016 school year at Denver's South High School. Unfamiliar with American culture or the English language, the students range from the ages of 14 to 19 and come from nations struggling with drought, famine, or war.

A must read for these troubled times

When Helen Thorpe set out to write this story, she had no way of knowing that Trump’s election would change the trajectory of her narrative in such a dramatic and painful way. That makes it even more imperative that more people read this book. It is at once heart breaking and heart warming on a grand scale. Easily one of the best books I’ve read in recent years.
