A family in New York sets out on a road trip to the Apacheria, the regions of the US which used to be Mexico. Meanwhile, thousands of children are journeying to the US border from Central America and Mexico. Not all of them will make it to the border. In a breath-taking feat of literary virtuosity, Lost Children Archive intertwines these two journeys to create a masterful novel full of echoes and reflections. Longlisted for the Women's Prize for Fiction 2019.
